BIOS GRAPHICAL ENGINE PROVIDING UNIFORM LOOK AND FEEL

摘要

A computer system comprises a Basic Input/Output System ('BIOS') graphical engine and a BIOS graphics look and feel module. The BIOS graphics look and feel module is separate from the BIOS graphical engine, and comprises a look and feel definition that defines the appearance and behavior of BIOS graphical user interface displays presented to a user before an operating system acquires control of the system. The BIOS graphical engine transforms information to be displayed for a user in accordance with the look and feel definition to provide a uniform appearance and behaviour to graphical displays provided to the user.
