El siguiente es el link al informe ACCEDE en TechRepublic A Compaq BIOS is like a file cabinet with many locked drawers and few open ones. The computer maker limits the settings users can change, unlike more liberal manufacturers that let users tinker with advanced settings. This means that Compaq prevents the owners of their computers from exploring the mysteries of their Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) settings, and from trying to make their computers run better and faster. To penetrate a Compaq BIOS, users need a map and a key. In this Daily Drill Down, I will provide both by explaining where Compaq owners can read BIOS information in DOS and in Windows, and by presenting a tool called TweakBIOS. With TweakBIOS, many settings that Compaq tried to hide are illuminated. I will also list some BIOS resources.
