Abstract

A hardware parameter configuring method operating under in an Extensible Firmware Interface-based basic input/output system mode includes reading a currently-existing hardware profile including multiple hardware parameters; reading a preloading hardware profile including multiple hardware parameters; comparing the currently-existing hardware parameters with their corresponding preloading hardware parameters to generate a comparison result; displaying the comparison result through a graphical interface; and loading the preloading hardware parameters to the hardware units to replace the currently-existing hardware parameters when receiving confirmation signal. Moreover, a computer having a central processing unit (CPU) used for implementing the steps including reading a current-existing hardware profile; reading a preloading hardware profile, comparing the currently-existing hardware parameters with their corresponding preloading hardware parameters to generate a comparison result; displaying the comparison result through a graphical interface; and loading the preloading hardware parameters to the hardware units to replace the currently-existing hardware parameters when receiving con…
