Abstract:
1. An abnormal information output system for a computer system, the computer system comprising at least a plurality of hardware devices and a plurality of sensors for detecting operation statuses of the hardware devices, the abnormal information output system comprising at least: a latch module connected to each of the sensors and the hardware devices, being configured for latching operation status information of the hardware devices during an abnormal operation of the computer system when the abnormal operation of the computer system is detected; and a basic input-output system (BIOS) module embedded in the computer system and connected to the latch module, being configured for analyzing the latched operation status information when the computer system returns to a normal operation so as to output corresponding abnormal information, wherein the latch module further comprises a latch unit, the latch unit determining that the computer system operates abnormally based on a transition signal(s) outputted by a pin(s) of a central processing unit (CPU) chip or based on an acquired voltage level transition signal(s) transitioning from a low voltage level to a high voltage level that is/are outputted by pin(s) of an input-output (IO) chip.
