Abstract

A computer device and a memory startup method of a computer are provided, where a basic input/output system initializes only a first part of memory in a memory initialization phase after a computer is powered on and started, so that an operating system can be started, and after the operating system is started, the basic input/output system continues to initialize memory that is not initialized in the computer, so that, in a startup phase, the computer can start the operating system without needing to wait until all memory has been initialized; therefore, a time from being started to entering the operating system is reduced for the computer, and a user can quickly enter the operating system to perform an operation, thereby improving user experience.
