I would have to say that you would need the updater software and the actual BIOS update (firmware)
it uses bios first to boot when you start up you see dependind on the computer a bios screen witch is on the mother board you can update you bios, but make sure because its a risky move if its not nessesary dont update bios unless its needed back up your computer before you do this
I currently am running on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo li 2727 and i want to find out how i update the bios on my laptop.
To update BIOS settings on a Compaq Presario V3000, you will first need to download the latest BIOS update from the official Compaq website. Ensure your laptop is connected to a power source throughout the update process to prevent any interruptions. Follow the specific instructions provided with the BIOS update file to successfully update the BIOS settings on your Compaq Presario V3000. Remember to proceed with caution, as updating the BIOS incorrectly can potentially harm your laptop.
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.

Of course not
that happeds eaither when you update a Bios that you allready have or sometimes its not a full version update for exaple you may be a A06 version but the update was a A06.2 it will only display the A06
A04
It depends on type of the system. Some support update direcly from OS with following reboot and automatic update of the system. Other type is updated through BIOS dialog. And the last type is updated from bootable media.
It might have something to do with Wake On Lan, this is something that can be disabled in the BIOS. try to disable Wake On Lan or WOL within bios and see if that fixes it, it so, download a bios update
