Get BIOS Information

1 New Member
Hello everyone
Can anybody give me some information on how to access the BIOS from a programming language? Please. I would appreciate if you could. I would like to access all the parts of the BIOS from the language. I want to get all the information from the BIOS like the temperature, the IO devices, etc.

I understand that this information is saved in the RAM between 640KB and 1MB, but dunno how to access that.
Plse help me

thanx a lot.
