Do i need to update my BIOS?

is this a self built pc?
I could not tell by your attachment
I have a dell dimension 3000, it came with bios version A02, and at the dell support page there was an update to A03, so I updated it and that is the last update, even though intel has other updates, dell has modified it for an oem bios, so no more updates.
I will see if I can find what your bios should be.

check out both of the intel sites above, but if it is an OEM pc, then you need to go to the pc manufacturers website and look for the latest version of the bios.
Should be a page there for drivers and downloads for your specific pc.

This computer was made in 2005
mine was made in 2003, and even though there are updates for my bios, there are no more OEM updates.
In all but the rarest cases I stick with whatever BIOS version a PC ships with. I've known people over the years who have had a bad attempt at flashing a BIOS to a newer or the latest version brick their PCs completely. Unless you need a certain BIOS option that a newer revision offers but older ones don't, it's wise to keep the BIOS revision you've got.
