How to take screenshots of BIOS ?

[VexByte]

What is the method to take the screenshots of BIOS irrespective of the make ?

Is there any specific softwares available to take the screenshots of BIOS ?

One of my friends told me that all the screenshots of BIOS are taken using normal cameras. Is that true ?

I don't think it's possible at all to take screenshot of a BIOS cos to take a screenshot you need to load a software but how will that software communicate to the hardware when BIOS is not yet loaded fully. I doubt if taking a screenshot of a BIOS can be achieved in the way BIOS'es are at the present.

Run the OS using virtualization solution like vmware/virtual PC and then take the screenshot of the BIOS

But that will not show your PC's BIOS.

Easiest way to take screenshot of BIOS is to do it with a Digital Camera or cellphone camera and then upload it on to the computer

I have already tried that method before starting this thread but it is not working in all the BIOS'es.

Actually I'm looking for a more generic approach that will work with all the BIOS brands.

Then i must say go for a digicam

[Lucky_star]

Yeah. Go for a digicam. Make the room dark, increase the screen brightness and take the shot without the flash...

[sysfilez]

yes digicam is the easiest way, dont make things complicated.
