You need Windows for copying the screen to the buffer as well. I think a program that queries the Bios from Windows is what you want. Or, more easily, some manufacturers Bios will let you save the settings to a file, which you can print after you load Windows. robo. |

| 171724 | 2003-08-30 09:33:00 | Theres a couple of simple alternatives. One "freeware" (almost) solution, a very very old one. Its called "pencil and paper" Another higher tech one, if you have a digital camera. Photograph each page of the BIOS screen. Some OEM systems have BIOS interrogation programs, some don't. Most BIOS settings are fine on "default", which means you only need to record the differences from default. |

| 171725 | 2003-08-30 10:05:00 | Well, I can print a BIOS screen with Shift+Print Screen keys, but I use an old NEC dot matrix for text printing connected to the printer port (not USB). | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
