Embodiment Construction

[0012] like figure 1 Shown is a schematic diagram of the operating environment of the BIOS update system of the present invention. The BIOS (Basic Input Output System, Basic Input Output System) update system 10 runs in a computer device 1 . The computer device 1 also includes a memory 11 , a processor 12 , and a BIOS chip 13 . The BIOS chip 13 is a ROM chip for storing the BIOS of the computer device 1, such as an EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM, erasable programmable ROM) chip or an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM, electrically erasable programmable ROM) chip .

[0013] The BIOS update system 10 includes a storage space division module 101 , a main program area division module 102 , a backup module 103 , an update module 104 and a recovery module 105 . In this embodiment, the BIOS update system 10 may be stored in the memory 11 in the form of software programs, and executed under the control of the processor 12 . In other embodiments, the BIOS update syst...

Abstract

A basic input output system (BIOS) updating system comprises a storage space dividing module used for dividing a storage space of a BIOS chip of a computer device into a plurality of storage areas, a main program area dividing module, a backup module and an updating module. The plurality of storage areas at least comprise a main program area, an information area and a backup area. The main program area dividing module is used for dividing the main program area into a plurality of storage modules. The backup module is used for conducting backup on programs in storage blocks in the main program area on the backup area according to the sequence. The updating module is used for erasing the programs in the storage blocks when any storage block in the main program area finishes the backup and writing a preset updated program in the storage block till the updated program is completely written into the main program area to update the programs in the main program area. A BIOS updating method is further provided. The system and method is used for updating the BIOS of the computer device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a BIOS updating system and method. Background technique [0002] BIOS (Basic Input Output System) provides the lowest and most direct hardware setting and control of computer equipment, and is one of the most important components of computer equipment. The BIOS usually includes a boot area (Boot Section) for storing the boot program of the computer and a main program area (Main Section) for storing and initializing various hardware in the computer system. Since the computer needs to support components such as new hardware devices, the main program area of ​​the BIOS needs to be updated or upgraded. In the process of updating the main program area, all programs in the main program area need to be erased first, and then new programs are written into the main program area. However, this update method may cause update failure due to power failure or restart of the computer, thereby causing damage to the BIOS and making the comput...
