- Description
- The EPA file type is associated with the Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) used in many computers. It specifically refers to the format for BIOS logo images that are displayed during the computer's boot-up sequence. These logo images, often customized by PC manufacturers or users to display a brand or personal image, are stored as .epa files. The EPA format is designed to be compatible with the Award BIOS environment, allowing for a personalized touch to the boot-up process.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
