My new desktop did not come with any BIOS. When I boot it, the screen stays black for about a minute and suddenly shows the OS. Are there any free BIOS programs out there, and how does installing them work? I'm sure the process isn't like installing a typical program.
How to install BIOS on a computer

Your computer definitely did come with a BIOS. It's impossible for a computer to boot up without one. Most likely your BIOS just doesn't have a splash screen, or has it turned off. What is the brand of your computer? You can probably find information with a quick google search on what the BIOS configuration key is for your computer; pressing that on start-up will open the BIOS options for you, where there may be an option to turn on the splash screen.
