First you will not need a floppy drive for this operation. Find your computer maker, find the (exact) number to your mother board, failing to get this correct will be a disaster. Check the link below for step by step instruction

I don't advise trying a BIOS upgrade unless you've installed different hardware than what came with the computer or it's not working properly. That would be a last resort. But it is possibly the first thing you'ld hear from tech support if they don't know how to fix your problem. LOL

Make sure you have the information on your motherboard, if you bought the computer from hp or dell, you can go to their website for updates, if its 3rd party parts, go to the motherboard manufactureres website and find your motherboard and it should have instructions on what to do once you have downloaded it. you must be very careful when you flash the bios, if you get the wrong one, or somehow mess it up, then you will have to buy a new motherboard.
