PhoenixBIOS™ 4.0 Release 6

PhoenixBIOS™ 4.0 Release 6 is the world's most successful BIOS. The first to incorporate a modular architecture with isolated components, PhoenixBIOS 4.0 made possible a new range of advantages for increasing product differentiation and reducing costs and time-to-market. And, since the structure is modular, customer specific features can be easily ported to other platforms.

Standards-Compliant

PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6 is compliant with all the major standards, including USB, PCI, ACPI, 1394, WfM and PC2001.

QuickBoot

Substantially reduces the configuration time required before booting the operating system. End users can enable or disable QuickBoot in Setup. It automatically disables itself on detecting an error.

Graphical Boot and Setup

Uses VGA for including OEM bitmaps for Quietboot screens and for POST and Setup messages.
