Summary
BIOS, or Basic Input Output System, is firmware that initializes hardware during computer startup. It performs a Power-On Self Test (POST) to ensure hardware functionality and directs the computer to the operating system. BIOS settings are stored in CMOS, requiring a battery for retention. Accessing BIOS varies by device brand and model.
