Abstract
A computing system may implement a basic input/output system (BIOS) update method. The BIOS also includes identifying an installed central processing unit (CPU) of a computer system coupled to a BIOS chipset, selecting CPU firmware corresponding to the installed CPU from a plurality of CPU platform firmware stored on a first memory, and loading the CPU firmware into a shared portion of a second memory coupled to the BIOS chipset, where the shared portion of the second memory is configured to store the CPU firmware as secondary CPU firmware.
