No, to my knowledge the BIOS of a computer is not affected by the installation of any Operating System (OS). The BIOS provides some common information to the OS, so the OS does not have to know specific things that may be different from computer to computer, like the type of hard drive for example. The BIOS takes care of how the hard drive is configured so the OS does not need to worry about it.

Why BIOS is being updated?
The basic input/output system (BIOS) on a computer is a simple yet important program on a personal computer (PC) that helps the computer properly boot and run an operating system (OS) during startup. BIOS drivers are typically used in reference to the program itself, and how the program runs and interacts with other devices on the computer. The BIOS drivers on a computer are saved on a small battery located on the motherboard and allow for the proper initialization and startup of a computer when powered on.
