The BIOS firmware resides in a ROM chip that retains the data even when power is turned off. Flash BIOS means that the BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM chip that can easily be reprogrammed by end users using a Flash Utility. This allows a convenient way to upgrade your BIOS as newer features are released. Virtually every motherboard built in this century has a Flash BIOS.
