Systems, methodologies, media, and other embodiments associated with acquiring processor executable instructions from an option ROM are described. One exemplary method embodiment includes discovering input/output devices operably connected to a processor and updating a data structure with information concerning the input/output devices. The example method embodiment may also include obtaining a device driver from an option ROM associated with an input/output device, storing the device driver in non-MMIO memory and making the device driver available to input/output devices physically connected to the processor and for which information is stored in the data structure.
