    Hi everyone,

    I'm not really a tech, so i have a question for you :)
    I used to habe gsod problems, but i solved them by "flashing the bios" as explained on this forum ( http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gaming-notebook-forum/515309-how-fix-your-gsod-blues-15.html)

    Everything works fine since then, thank god :)

    Now, the question... since a few days i'm getting a pop-up asking if i want to update bios drivers and application. Since it was a hell before the flashing and that this flashing is risky, i wonder if i should do those updates or not? (the pop-up keeps on coming day after day)...

    Thanks to anyone who can help

    I'm assuming this is coming from Asus Live Update...

    I would seriously consider uninstalling that application and handling driver upgrades yourself!
