GIGABYTE Touch BIOS(Patent Pending), An Innovative New Way to Modify BIOS Settings

Navigating through the BIOS to control and change system settings can be daunting for many people who are not regular PC DIY users. With Touch BIOS™, GIGABYTE engineers have completely re-imagined how users can interact with their BIOS, allowing for a more familiar icon-based user experience. In fact, with a touch screen monitor, GIGABYTE Touch BIOS™ is as easy to use as most apps on your iPhone. Check out this 3 minute Touch BIOS™ video introduction to see just how easy BIOS control can be.

Touch navigation requires a touch enabled monitor + Windows 7 operating system.
Mouse navigation is supported with any standard monitor (including touch enabled monitor) + Windows XP/Vista/7 operating system.

the icons should have words so it's easier to know what they're for

The only problem I have with the skin over the top of a general user interface look of mobo utilities is that they end up breaking good UI and UX principles. This idea is a big violator of it. Lose the over the top skins and pair it back to basics. I'd like to see it in a tree style interface similar to AMD Catalyst or the Nvidia drivers.

The BIOS should not be for "easy changes" and marketing gimmicks like touch. You should provide mouse support but most importantly, provide DETAILED DOCUMENTATION to each function. That's where your efforts should be placed...

You guys wasted time using a windows MessageBox... This overall idea and interface works very well with the Windows 8 plan, it's similar to a metro-style app, but then you're gonna have to reprogram it all for that as soon as it's fully released!

Isn't Bios technology being phased out anyway?

I thought UEFI was being phased in as a replacement?

[ashboxtoo]

Yeah this is a bit dumb, just get a mouse pointer for the BIOS and a GUI and you're set. None of this fucken touch screen shit, touch screen is smudge time for monitors, who the hell has a touch screen for the main PC anyway? WHO? this is spastic

@garekinokami in windows? I thought it was the bios got changed

[garekinokami]

@XxXPenrdXxX It is optional, but hey I see the useful side of it: being able to view settings while using Windows.
