Abstract
A method of remotely modifying a basic input/output system (BIOS) configuration setting includes steps of: transmitting, by a remote computer, a modification instruction to a cloud server; transmitting, by the cloud server to a POS system, a new configuration value of the BIOS configuration setting contained in the modification instruction; determining, by an embedded controller of the POS system, whether the new configuration value is identical to an original configuration value of the BIOS configuration setting; and by the embedded controller when a result of the determination is negative, updating the BIOS configuration setting and transmitting a response instruction to the remote computer.
