BIOS is embedded in ROM, and booting information store in rom and first time start the computer so bootstrap loader initiate and take up OPERATING SYSTEM from hard disk to RAM. And POST operation execute this time, post operation function to check system activity and efficiency.

The BIOS is typically placed in a ROM chip that comes with the computer (it is often called a ROM BIOS). This ensures that the BIOS will always be available and will not be damaged by disk failures. It also makes it possible for a computer to boot itself. Because RAM is faster than ROM, though, many computer manufacturers design systems so that the BIOS is copied from ROM to RAM each time the computer is booted. This is known as shadowing.
