What is the BIOS?

[computerguru1]

Ever wonder exactly what the BIOS is?

It's a term you've probably heard if you've ever had your computer repaired or gone online for tips on how to fix a problem yourself.

The BIOS is the system that allows your computer to boot up and load whatever OS is installed. It also allows the computer to control external accessories (such as printers and keyboards) that are hooked to the computer.

The BIOS does allow for editing, but only experienced users should try to do this on their own.
