Abstract:
A disclosed information handling system is configured to display a consistent logo or image throughout a platform initialization process. In a first-time boot, in a DXE phase, image information is read from firmware storage and processed for native resolution for a display panel and HOB information is saved to firmware volumes with Hand-Off Block (HOB) information. In subsequent iterations of the platform initialization process, the processed image is displayed early in a PEI phase and the HOB information is stored with the processed image. The image is displayed throughout the DXE and BDS phases of each subsequent platform initialization process and the display is consistent for different information handling systems and display panels.
