PC's that boot in seconds

For a quarter of a century, Bios software has been used to start up PC’s old and new, but at last its replacement is ready for roll-out.



Without getting too technical, the Bios software has been used to initialise machine operating systems for the last 25 years. The code was never intended to live this long, and adapting it to modern PCs is one reason they take as long as they do to warm up.


The Bios replacement, known as UEFI or Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, will predominate in new PCs by 2011 and is designed to be much more flexible. Most excitingly though, for end users, is that new PCs could start in just seconds with the new software.
