Methods and systems for updating a BIOS image

Abstract

In at least some embodiments, a computer system comprises a processor and a system memory coupled to the processor. The system memory stores a multi-platform management interface that, when executed, enables communication between the computer system and an updating computer. The computer system further comprises a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) memory coupled to the processor, the BIOS memory stores a BIOS image and function calls compatible with the multi-platform management interface, wherein at least one of the function calls is selectively initiated to update the BIOS image based on communication with the updating computer via the multi-platform management interface.
