Method for Running Startup Program of Electronic Device, and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18552142 titled 'Method for Running Startup Program of Electronic Device, and Electronic Device

Simplified Explanation

Embodiments of this application provide a method for running a boot program of an electronic device, and an electronic device. In the method, the boot program in embodiments of this application may include two BIOSs, where one is a primary BIOS, and the other is a secondary BIOS. The electronic device stores the entire primary BIOS in a first storage, and stores some program blocks in the secondary BIOS in a second storage. When the primary BIOS is damaged, the electronic device may determine storage locations of program blocks in the secondary BIOS in the second storage, load these program blocks into a memory of the electronic device, and then run the program blocks in the secondary BIOS, so that the electronic device is powered on normally.

  • Method for running a boot program with two BIOSs: primary and secondary.
  • Primary BIOS stored in first storage, secondary BIOS with program blocks in second storage.
  • If primary BIOS is damaged, program blocks from secondary BIOS are loaded into memory and run to power on the device.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various electronic devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices that require a reliable boot program to function properly.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures the electronic device can still boot up even if the primary BIOS is damaged. 2. Provides a backup system to prevent complete failure of the device due to BIOS issues.

Benefits

1. Increased reliability and resilience of electronic devices. 2. Reduces the risk of device failure due to BIOS corruption. 3. Enhances user experience by ensuring devices can boot up successfully.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Device Reliability with Dual BIOS Technology"

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art is the use of dual BIOS systems in computer motherboards to provide a backup in case the primary BIOS fails. This technology has been used in various computer systems to ensure system stability and reliability.

What is the impact of this technology on electronic device reliability?

This technology significantly improves the reliability of electronic devices by providing a backup system in case the primary BIOS is damaged. It ensures that the device can still boot up and function properly even in the event of BIOS issues.

How does this innovation contribute to user experience?

This innovation enhances user experience by reducing the risk of device failure due to BIOS corruption. Users can have peace of mind knowing that their electronic devices have a backup system in place to prevent complete failure.
