The easier question would be what IS a reason to update. If your software or hardware does not support the functions they were meant to and your BIOS has firmware that can make it function, then this is reason enough to consider flashing yur BIOS. Upgrading BIOS is something you simply don't do on a whim as you could adversely compromise behavior and possibly indirectly damage other hardware.
There are many reasons why you would want or need to flash a bio. You could do this to prove something.
The word flaw only has one syllable - there is no stressed one.
It's not really clear how much a BIOS costs since they're not marketed to end users but are sold to motherboard manufacturers. A BIOS is essentially a part of a motherboard. A BIOS is likely to be removable on a modern motherboard and technically it could be possible to replace a BIOS if it went bad or if for some reason it was to be upgraded, but for BIOS upgrades usually it is sufficient to flash (reprogram) the existing BIOS.
My computer's BIOS was made by American Megatrends, one of the main producers of BIOS systems for personal computers. I think that almost all of my PCs have used their BIOS.
The die flaw on the British 1946 Penny is a small mark after the ONE on the reverse (ONE').
Firmware refers to programs that are fixed, low-level operations. Since the BIOS is hard coded on a chip, it can be classified as firmware.
Something that no one else knows about you like what you do in your free time, etc.
The real question is, how do you know your BIO's have a virus?If for some reason they really are corrupt. You will have to flash the firmware. If that's not possible the get another motherboard.

No, flashing the bios will not affect anything that you have in windows, unless you make a mistake with the flash and have to reinstall windows. Make sure you read your manual on the exact method of how to flash your bios, and only do this if you have problems, you just don't update them for no reason, this does not make the system run better, there are specific reasons to do this. You could actually cause problems. Most of the time, the reason you would do this is if you have a new processor that you want to put in and it needs the new version of the BIOS to run. Or if this is a fix to a problem that the MFG has found and this is a fix, and you have the same problem. Its not a cell phone, the BIOS should only be flashed for a reason, just want to make sure you understand this.
