Computer host extension device and startup control method thereof

Abstract

The present invention discloses a startup control method for a computer host extension device, which can customize a video in the computer starting process, and the computer host extension device using the method. A video play module and a storage module are arranged in the extension device; and when a client starts up a computer, a control module connects the video play module with a video output interface, the extension device takes over a display and starts to play a preset video instead of a monotonous computer boot animation, and the extension device connects a computer host with the display again until the computer startup is completed, so that the display can receive a video signal sent by the computer host. By adopting the method, the startup video can be customized and is pre-stored in the extension device, which also provides a new advertising mode. Not only is the problem, that a user feels bored in the startup waiting process, solved, but also a series of advertising effects can be brought.
