basic input output system BIOS needed for a computer to find the input and output devices which are connected to it... such as ram keyboard mouse speaker system monitor etc etc...

the bios serves as instruction on what to do after the processor is turned on. Such as access the hard drive for a boot, and many other things. Without a bios, the processor would not know what to do.
