This was a Lenovo. Now I’m wondering if Windows or Linux has a better BIOS.

    Nah, the BIOS is what launches the operating system, therefor they are separate.

      The machine can’t operate without the bios. It’s part of the operating system.

        That’s not what operating system means. In fact, you do not need one. You can run programs directly on the bare metal, it’s just really difficult too coordinate tasks that way.
