Systems and methods for repairing corruption to BIOS boot critical memory variables

An information handling system may include a processor and a basic input/output system (BIOS) comprising a program of instructions executable on the processor, the basic input/output system configured to, upon occurrence of a predetermined number of failures to complete a power-on/self-test (POST) of the information handling system: for each particular critical boot variable of the BIOS stored in a memory associated with the BIOS, read a backup variable for the particular critical boot variable, if available, and write a value of the backup variable as the critical boot variable; and attempt to reboot the information handling system with values of the backup variables used for the critical boot variables.
