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.

How can you do bios update?
Hi there,here is what I can do for you.Wish for help. Perform the update. Run the downloaded installer or application executable for the BIOS updating software. If the software prompts you for a floppy, use a formatted 1.44MB 3.5" floppy disk. It doesn't matter if the floppy is blank or not because the data will be overwritten if you don't mind wiping the disk. 1. If using a floppy, insert it into the drive and restart the system to boot from it. Some floppy images contain an "autoexec.bat" file to automatically run the BIOS update. Others will just have the update software, the updated BIOS image, and possibly a 'readme' text file containing directions. If there are no directions, but there are at least two files (ie: "A06_123.bin" and "awflash.exe"), follow this example: Enter a command such as "awflash A06_123.bin" and press enter. This will execute the update software and specify the A06_123.bin file to flash the BIOS. 2. Compare the two versions. Most BIOS update software will read the existing BIOS image and determine its version, then compare this to the downloaded BIOS image. If the system's existing BIOS version is older, perform the update. The user interface of BIOS software may vary greatly, yet typically menu buttons or selections such as "Write", "Update", or "Confirm" will perform the BIOS update. Save

I doubt you need to update the BIOS. Having an outdated BIOS would cause the whole system to be unstable and buggy, not just affect one game in particular. If you had given your whole system specs, I might have been able to help you. Other than that, it may be because your graphics card is not powerful enough, you need to update your graphics cards's drivers or you have installed the game wrong.
