A method for booting a computer system by a basic input-output system memory having first and second basic input-output system is provided. The computer system includes the basic input-output system memory, a first system bus data, a control circuit, and a timer. The method includes steps of starting clocking with the timer, decoding the first system bus data to obtain a second system bus data, reading the first basic input-output system by the control circuit in response to the second system bus data, booting the computer system, and disabling the timer. If the timer can't be disabled, a time-out signal will be generated by the timer. Then, the time-out signal is received and the first system bus data is decoded into a third system bus data. Finally the computer system will be booted in response to the third system bus data.
