What is the name of the BIOS that is located on the motherboard?

The term "System BIOS" specifically refers to the Basic Input/Output System that is stored on the motherboard. It is crucial for booting the computer and managing data between the operating system and attached devices like hard drives and keyboards. This BIOS initializes hardware during the startup process and provides runtime services for operating systems and programs.

While "Basic Input/Output System" is the full name of the BIOS, the question specifically asks for the name associated with the motherboard. The options "Startup BIOS" and "Firmware BIOS" are not standard terms commonly used to define the BIOS found on motherboards. "Firmware" generally refers to the software that is embedded in hardware devices and could include various types of software, but when referring to the BIOS on a motherboard, "System BIOS" is the precise term used in the context of PCs.
