A.BIOS: Basic Input/Output System (BIOS), also known as the system BIOS or ROM BIOS. The fundamental purposes of the BIOS are to initialize and test the system hardware components, and to load an operating system or other program from a mass memory device. The BIOS provides a consistent way for application programs and operating systems to interact with the keyboard, display, and other input/output devices. Variations in the system hardware are hidden by the BIOS from programs that use BIOS services instead of directly accessing the hardware. BIOS software is stored on a non-volatile ROM chip on the motherboard. It is specifically designed to work with each particular model of computer, interfacing with various devices that make up the complementary chipset of the system. In modern computer systems, the BIOS contents is stored on an EEPROM chip so that the contents can be rewritten without removing the chip from the motherboard. This allows BIOS software to be easily upgraded to add new features or fix bugs. System registry: System registry is a database which Windows OSs use to store information about the computer configuration.

The registry keeps the data to which a Windows OS refers when operating:
