发明名称 Method of decreasing boot up time in a computer system
摘要 A method of decreasing boot up time in a computer system is disclosed. The method may include initiating a basic input/output system (BIOS) boot process in the computer system. The method determines a total amount of memory installed in the computer system and divides the total amount of memory into a first memory group and a second memory group based on a system policy that sets a size of the first memory group. The method initializes the first memory group in the computer system such that the first memory group includes sufficient memory to load an operating system. The method loads an operating system on the computer system. In response to loading the operating system on the computer system, the method causes a plurality of system management interrupts (SMI) to occur whereby a portion of the second memory group is initialized during each of the SMI.
