Although he was clearly annoyed by my bothering him, he muttered to the effect "we do it all the time" I have no idea what all those lines of code mean, so I stay far away. I'm content just being a user of software.

Do you know for sure if it does that? If so, it would be quite awesome!

Does anyone know of software that allows you to capture the screen within the BIOS? Currently I use a digital camera and just take pictures of the monitor, but of course, those graphics are distorted and look like crap.
