Maria..... BIOS is the first level of software which boots up your computer. It is located on a chip on the motherboard. It is fundamental to start up and in general the BIOS should not be fiddled with unless there is an overpowering clear reason to do so -- and then only when you establish exactly what you are intending to do before you change anything and understand how to recover if your adjustment doesn't work. Many bad things can happen fooling with the BIOS. It brings up the hard drives and removable drives and establishes boot disk order cashing settings power up settings etc. It won't hurt to look at these features as long as the last thing you do is "EXIT WITHOUT SAVING CHANGES"....
