Abstract: An example device comprises a plurality of components and a BIOS includes a non-volatile memory having instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor of the device to cause the BIOS to determine a component identification (ID) of a component of the plurality of components, and fetch a plurality of recall component IDs. The instructions also are to cause the BIOS to compare the determined component ID with the plurality of recall component IDs. In response to a correspondence between the determined component ID and one recall component ID of the plurality of component IDs, the BIOS is to transmit signals representing a prompt to place the component of the plurality of components in a safety mode. The instructions also cause the BIOS to receive signals in response to the prompt and, responsive to the received signals, disable the component of the plurality of components.
