ABSTRACT:
A Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) includes a management and driver module adapted to accomplish editing functions for the BIOS. Plug-in modules are added to the BIOS by submitting the plug-ins to the driver module, which determines compatibility and available space for adding, and acts accordingly, adding a candidate module to the BIOS if space is available and the plug-in module is determined to be compatible with the BIOS and the driver module. Plug-ins can also be removed by action of the driver module, which also performs management functions in identifying and initializing resident plug-in modules.
