  1. POST BIOS CMOS ROM

  2. POST • Power • On • Self • Test

  3. What happens in POST? • Tells your components to test itself. The programing will then launch its own appliance to test itself. • Disclaimer- POST is only as good as the components manufactures make it.

  4. BIOS • Basic • Input • Output • Service

  5. BIOS Task • Supports hardware that never changes, • Example Internal speaker controller and Keyboard controller • Supports hardware that might change from time to time • Any removable component on your computer

  6. CMOS • Complementary • Metal-oxide • Semiconductor

  7. BIOS VS CMOS • Are they not the same thing? • NO but! • CMOS • CMOS stores all of the data that is read by the BIOS. • The CMOS does NOT store programs. CMOS only stores data.

  8. ROM • Read • Only • Memory

  9. ROM VS RAM • ROM has two very different characteristics • Nonvolatile memory - information store on memory does not get erased when computer turns off. • Once you write a program to ROM you cannot change it.

  10. Flashing ROM VS ROM • Older style • Cannot be flash • Newer style ROMs or Flash ROM • Can be Flash it is call "Flashing the ROM"

  11. Why ROM? • CMOS • BIOS • POST • Devices
