Bios update question
If I updae my bios but there were a bunch of updates that I didn't do, can I assume the newest bios update will update it to a version that has all the other updates built in?

You will need to read through upgrade that you haven't done. If your BIOS version is old, there may be an in-between update that needs to be done before the latest can be done.
Generally the thinking is, no need to up-dated unless an up date corrects a particular problem to your machine.

Bios updates are always complete replacements. Just use the latest version if you need to update.

Ok, so I had an issue in which my monitor, keyboard and mouse wouldn't work when I first turned on the computer, then if I held the button down for five seconds and then hit it again they worked fine. A bios update came out that fixed the problem. That was 4 months ago. No problems, and then last week suddenly it started doing it again. I can't explain why.
