This was a Lenovo. Now I’m wondering if Windows or Linux has a better BIOS.

    The BIOS is an operating system, albeit a super low level one. What is wrong here? It would only be software gore if it said that it was part of the windows operating system, since the BIOS is a system operating system.

      Only thing that’s really off is that most people don’t need to update BIOS with any frequency, if at all, given the potential for ruining your PC. I certainly wouldn’t trust my parents with doing it on their own.

    I mean it is part of the System running on that machine. So it is technically part of the OS?

      Nah, the BIOS is what launches the operating system, therefor they are separate.
