While use of the BIOS is very limited while the OS runs, its functions are still peripherally used. For example, when a computer sleeps, the OS is not running and it ultimately falls to the firmware to set the hardware to the correct state to pause and resume the OS.
What does the BIOS do during boot up?
The BIOS then starts the boot sequence. It looks for the operating system stored on your hard drive and loads it into the RAM. The BIOS then transfers control to the operating system, and with that, your computer has now completed the startup sequence.
Can your computer boot without BIOS?
EXPLANATION: Because, without the BIOS, the computer will not start. BIOS is like the ‘basic OS’ which interconnects the basic components of the computer and allows it to boot up. Even after the main OS is loaded, it may still use the BIOS to talk to the main components.
