A method for reducing BIOS resume time from a computer system sleeping state, and corresponding components and system for implementing the method. The method first identifies an operating system (OS) type running on a computer system. Based on the operating system type that is identified, a set of BIOS resume tasks specific to that operating system type are dispatched for execution in response to a sleep mode wake event. Generally, the OS-type specific BIOS resume tasks may be stored on various storage means, such as BIOS devices, operating system files, or as a carrier wave. In one embodiment, various generic BIOS resume tasks and corresponding dispatch flag data are stored in one or more tables. In another embodiment, various sets of BIOS resume tasks are stored in separate tables or lists, wherein the sets of BIOS resume tasks may be operating system type and/or computer platform type specific.
