Are you talking about updating the BIOS of your motherboard? If so, what make and model is it? The BIOS on some motherboards can be updated through windows. I do it with my ASUS mobo.

also possible the bios update is disabled in the bios or a jumper on the motherboard. i do that so a virus can't get into the bios nor have the bios update it self as could be using a corrupted file. have a couple of boards scrapped by a friend when it auto updated the bios wrong.
