      I wouldn’t update the BIOS at the stage. A BIOS update is something you consider after all other possibilities have been exhausted. Unless the BIOS information says that the update will actually fix the USB problem you are having, then it will achieve nothing and if you get it wrong, render your computer useless. If the USB was working previously then there is no reason why the BIOS should stop it from working. The BIOS code is in Read Only Memory which is practically immune from corruption.

      If you really insist on updating the BIOS there should also be a BIOS update application that you can download with the necessary files to do the update. This will tell you how to do the BIOS update as each manufacture is slightly different.
