Neither, BIOS does not list device drivers at all.
Yes. Any device that shows up in BIOS setup should also be listed in Device Manager.
When the PC starts up, the first job for the BIOS is to initialize and identify system devices such as the video display card, keyboard and mouse, hard disk, CD/DVD drive and other hardware. The BIOS then locates software held on a peripheral device (designated as a 'boot device'), such as a hard disk or a CD, and loads and executes that software, giving it control of the PC.This process is known as booting, or booting up, which is short for bootstrapping.

The BIOS is located into the CMOS chip on the motherboard. It can only be accsed through the BIOS setting when you start up and device drivers are located in the root drive in the windows folder
