Both.
Because BIOS had to do with the booting of a computer.
Device Driver
Most BIOS won't use a mouse.
Neither, BIOS does not list device drivers at all.
Well,the basic input/output system (BIOS) on a computer is a simple yet important program on a personal computer (PC) that helps the computer properly boot and run an operating system (OS) during startup. BIOS drivers are typically used in reference to the program itself, and how the program runs and interacts with other devices on the computer. The BIOS drivers on a computer are saved on a small battery located on the motherboard and allow for the proper initialization and startup of a computer when powered on. In computing, a device driver or software driver is a computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device.
Yes. Any device that shows up in BIOS setup should also be listed in Device Manager.
bios
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) on a motherboard is a hardware device that can be updated through software. The BIOS is a firmware that initializes hardware components during the boot process. Updating the BIOS can provide bug fixes, performance improvements, and support for new hardware. It is important to follow manufacturer instructions carefully when updating the BIOS to avoid any potential issues.
hard drive
In IBM PC compatible computers, the basic input/output system (BIOS), also known as the System BIOS or ROM BIOS , is a de facto standard defining a firmware interface. When in computing, a device driver or software driver is a computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device.
I believe hardware is controlled through the BIOS and OS Kernel
