Abstract
A pre-boot screen can be accessed remotely. A remote access BIOS module can be employed on a computing system to logically split a GPU into a local screen rendering part and a remote access part and to logically split GPU memory into a local screen memory region and a remote access memory region. The remote access part of the GPU can access a pre-boot screen that has been copied to the remote access memory region and create network packets with payloads containing the pre-boot screen. The remote access part can then cause the network packets to be transferred to a NIC for delivery to a remote computing system. A remote access application on the remote computing system can extract and display the pre-boot screen. The remote access application can relay any user input back to the remote access BIOS module which can then cause the user input to be implemented locally.
