The PC computer's BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is the heart of all PCs. Learn more about improving and upgrading your PC's computing power with BIOS functions, secrets, descriptions and tips for... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is well worth the money, since it not only told me more about my BIOS, it did a more thorough job of explaining some of the fundamentals of hardware for me than did some of my A+ certification books, as well as the half-dozen tomes on "Upgrading and Repairing" of various ilk. Introducing some of the finer points, going over things for those with older PC's, as well as the more recent technological improvements, this book is worth twice the price, but don't tell the publisher and get it at a bargain price. The BIOS is not as complicated a creature as it at first appears to be, and this book will help anyone, from novice to an upper/intermediate user, fix common problems, as well as understand the hardware in their computer better than they would have thought possible, in plain language.
