Abstract

A computing system initialization system includes a BIOS processing system coupled to a computing device via a first I/O access connection, to a BIOS memory system via a second I/O access connection that is a relatively higher speed I/O access connection than the first I/O connection, and to a BIOS module. The BIOS processing system retrieves device data from the computing device via the first I/O access connection, stores the device data in the BIOS memory system via the second I/O access connection, and performs initialization operations subsequent to storing the device data in the BIOS memory system. During the initialization operations, the BIOS processing determines that the BIOS module requires the device data and, in response, retrieves the device data from the BIOS memory system via the second I/O access connection, and provides the device data that was retrieved from the BIOS memory system to the BIOS module.
