Abstract

Provided is a device and method for assisting power-on and updating BIOS of motherboard. It inserts an interface card into the socket of the motherboard. The interface card has at least one memory component for storing BIOS. After powering on the computer, the interface card acquires first priority of the system by setting inside chipsets to allow the BIOS of the interface card to power on the computer. After entering the operating system, it first executes the external program to lower the priority of the interface card so as to give the first priority back to BIOS of the motherboard and update it, thereby achieving a fixing function.
