Basic BIOS Page



Wow... The LCD display is so cool. It has a ton of commands which is displays as it does POST and boot. You can see exactly what the BIOS is doing and if it fails what it was doing when it failed.

For example:

C1: Detect Memory: Detect DRAM size, type and ECC
1F: Load keyboard matrix
23: Check validity of RTC value
50: Initialize USB
FF: Boot Attempt

Very cool!

Windows is currently being installed. Then drivers and BIOS files. After that I will let her lose!
