Computer makers seek to banish boot-up blues

,----[ Quote ]
| The BIOS is the first piece of code that a computer runs 
| when it is powered on. Before Windows or Linux can 
| start, the BIOS identifies, tests and gets system 
| devices such as the video display card, the hard disk 
| and other hardware up and running. But running the tests 
| every time the machine powers on can be time consuming.
