er what are BIOS update O.o?

When you first turn on your computer, it shows a black screen (usually) and it has system specs and stuff on it. That's your bios.

BIOS
Basic Input Output System
Where your computer loads information about your computer from a read-only memory (ROM) from the BIOS chip on the Mother Board. Generally getting your rapid access memory (RAM) installed, keyboard, hard disk drives (HDD), optical drives (CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, etc...), and floppy drives installed.
Usually BIOS upgrades are pretty straight forward.
But yeah if you screw it up your computer might not boot...
Which sucks arse

And they mght never boot again unless you can forcibily input your bios in your eeprom with a rom burner
