BIOS is short for basic input-output system - some simple instructions permanently stored in computer ROM. In other words, the instructions are available before the computer loads information from a hard disk or similar.

How do you dump bios of PCSX2?

To dump the BIOS of PCSX2, you'll need to use a PS2 console and a compatible memory card. First, install the PCSX2 emulator and configure it with the appropriate plugins. Then, insert the memory card into your PS2, load the BIOS dumper tool, and follow the instructions to create a BIOS dump. Finally, transfer the dumped BIOS files to your PC, where they can be configured in the PCSX2 settings.


Where will you put the bios in PS3 emulator?

There are no PS3 emulators and the bios file for the PS3 would not work in a PS2 emulator


Suppose you have obtained a ps2 BIOS from the internet and you have the pcsx2 emulator installed where do you place the BIOS files in order to play ps2 games?

You have two options. There is a subfolder called 'bios', just place the file there. Otherwise, if you want to place it in a different folder, go to configuration settings and change the bios directory from there...


Who are the manufacturers of system BIOS programs?

There are several BIOS manufacturers in existence. Phoenix and American Megatrends (AMI) are the two major ones still in existence (Award was purchased by Phoenix in 1998). Some OEMs, notably Toshiba, also develop their own BIOS in-house.


Can the system BIOS be reprogrammed to update its content?

You can flash the BIOS. I wouldn't recommend it, as it won't give much of an improvement UNLESS you're experiencing BSOD, crashing, etc. If this is the case you can go to your motherboard manufacturers website and they should have a BIOS update you can d/l.

Is BIOS volatile or non volatile?

BIOS is a program (stored in ROM), not a memory.However the BIOS uses a battery backed up RAM to store a variety of settings and parameters. This BIOS RAM is itself volatile (it can only store data when powered), however the battery backup provides power to this RAM when the main power of the computer is off (making it act as if it were nonvolatile). When this battery dies the BIOS RAM will lose its data and (after the battery is replaced) the machine may have to be reconfigured from scratch before the machine will startup correctly.


What does BIOLOGY stand for?

The letters in the word BIOLOGY do not "stand for" anything. The word means "the study of life" because it is composed of Latin "bios" meaning "life" and "logy" meaning "study of." It is not an acronym for anything.
