Does anyone know a way of printing out all one's BIOS settings, or of some utility that reads and displays the settings so that they can be printed? Otherwise it is a long process writing them all out by hand!

Thanks

Hi

Try turning on your printer and using the printscreen button on your keyboard. On a printer that works in dos it will print directlt to the printer port. bad luck if you have a new cheapo windows-only inkjet though.

Otherwise you could use tweakbios at

to view bios settings in windows. Just copy to clipboard.

I've done this with an old HP 1100 parallel port printer. All of my other printers are USB and not found in DOS. Most older parallel port printers will work.
