ABSTRACT:
A system for monitoring BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) messages of remote computers by a local server includes: the local server (1) for executing a monitoring program (11) to send requests for acquiring BIOS messages, and receive and display the BIOS messages; the remote computers (2), each remote computer executing a POST (Power On Self Test) program for outputting the BIOS messages, receiving a request for acquiring the BIOS messages from the local server, and transmitting the BIOS messages to the local server; and a network (3) for connecting the local server with the remote computers. Each remote computer includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) (21) for executing the POST program and outputting the BIOS messages, a remote control card (22) for detecting and capturing the BIOS messages, and a PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus (23) for connecting the CPU with the remote control card. Related methods are also provided.
