Looking in the BIOS setup is often a necessary part of troubleshooting a computer, since the information in there can be wrong. For instance, if the system doesn't recognize a hard drive, then it is possible that it is not enabled in the CMOS settings. At other times, the CPU or the memory could be clocked too fast and leading to crashes and errors.
when troubleshooting a computer, why might you have to enter BIOS setup? List three reasons
To manage simple devices (system BIOS)To start the computer (startup BIOS)To change settings on the motherboard (CMOS setup).
computer boots up
By pressing certain keys (depending on the specific computer and BIOS program) during the boot process, ex: F12, F2, F8,
On power-up. You need to tap the escape key to stop the operating system loading, and enter the BIOS set-up screen.
To manage simple devices (system BIOS)To start the computer (startup BIOS)To change settings on the motherboard (CMOS setup).
Basically a program in the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) in a computer that can change the value of the CMOS RAM.
The BIOS is used to manage simple devices (system BIOS), the BIOS is used to start the computer (startup BIOS), and the BIOS is used to change settings on the motherboard (CMOS setup).
The Motherboard configuration is stored in the BIOS setup
AMI stands for American Megatrends Incorporated. They are a computer BIOS manufacturer. The ROM BIOS is needed to give the computer the very basic commands and services it needs to start. The BIOS tests and initializes the hardware and provides BIOS services for software to use. Along with the BIOS is the CMOS which allows you to setup and configure the computer and to recognize the hard drives.
On windows? Wrong category. But if it's your computer, just take the battery out of the computer's motherboard and the BIOS will reset leaving no password for the BIOS login. If its a phone then it's not possible.
The computer emits a pattern of beeps indicating the failing device.
