    You'd be better off looking for BIOS updates in the appropriate forum for your system.

    Tutorials and what not will vary on the BIOS supplied with your motherboard. Typically, motherboards these days only use either AMI or Pheonix for their BIOS.

    1. Download your official updated BIOS file from your PC maker
    2. Probably run setup.exe
    3. ....
    4. Profit!
