The MBR takes control of the boot process from the sytem bios.
When the computer is first turned on, (or booted), the BIOS program is in control. After performing a few system checks, the BIOS program turns the computer over to an operating system like Windows XP.
In Windows Operating System when system is powered on then power is supplied to BIOS Chip on Motherboard. BIOS checks all devices and their firmwares and looks for the MBR code on First Bootable device or bootable device found in order as configured in BIOS. MBR the first sector on bootable media directs to the Bootloader program. Bootloader program loads the Windows Kernel and then Windows OS takes control in Memory and Manages the Operating System's features.
Write down all the settings. BIOS setting may affect system operation and restoring them may be time consuming so they should be recorded in case they are lost during the upgrade process.
The process of upgrading or refreshing the ROM BIOS chip is called flashing BIOS. The power menu in BIOS setup allows you to configure automatic power saving features.
the ROM BIOS chip
That would be the BIOS.

The BIOS (basic input output system) provides the basic services like 'power on self test' (to check whether all the devices like keyboard,mouse that are connected to computer are working or not ). Then it it has a bootstrap program that loads the boot file from operating system . then the operating system takes over the control.
The long form of BIOS is Basic Input/Output System. BIOS is a firmware used to perform hardware initialization during the booting process and provides runtime services for operating systems.

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), although it's usually considered firmware, not software. Otherwise it would be the OS(Operating System).
The determination of RAM in Microsoft Windows based systems (and BIOS) can be determined in many ways, When the operating system has loaded pressing control+alt+delete can open the system process menu. This will detail RAM consumption. During computer start-up BIOS utilities can display total and offer utilities to test each memory module.

Hell no. the bios sits under the operating system (vista is an operating system) the bios is independent of operating systems, and is there to....run the operating system.
A computer's Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) is embedded software on a motherboard that will control attached hardware. It provides an operating system with information about hardware, and is designed to support a specific range of components. The BIOS itself is typically an EEPROM, or Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory, that is programmed with "firmware" and has the ability to save small amounts of information specific to user configurations. BIOS components are often soldered to the motherboard and therefore not serviceable by the user. Still some of these can be inserted into a socket, allowing its replacement. All BIOS components are serviceable via a firmware upgrade that is known as "flashing" this process is called "updating the BIOS". The process itself is fragile since any power fluctuation during a flash may irrevocably corrupt a BIOS' firmware. Great care will need to be taken in order to safely accomplish this.
