m18 R2, BIOS update question

Nevermind, I just saw the pinned topic. However, if there are any tips I would storehouse knowing them. Like, if it's a long process I'd like to know so I don't get anxious if it takes a while. Or anything else that's useful to know. Thank you. 

If you post the exact model number of your system I can point you to the correct instructions. BUT if you have never done a BIOS update before and are not sure of the procedure it may be better to leave well enough alone. If the system is working well and the update does not rectify a perceived problem then I would not necessarily go to the install. The worse that can happen if you make a mistake is a bricked MB and an MB replacement. Interestingly  hardware manufacturers such as HP state that a BIOS update is not necessary on a system that works well. 

I appreciate the response. My rig is an m18 r2. I've read that the CPU instability issue does not apply to the 14900HX processor, but the post for the update reads that it is for 13th and 14th generation, so I am unsure whether I should apply it. I've only had it for a few days - it crashed once during minimal use (I think it did, but it may have been during a game) - plus it crashed with a message saying it was GPU related. Essentially I'm a noob with BIOS so I storehouse your help. 

Also, sometimes the computer doesn't want to come out of sleep mode when I open the lid back up - don't know if that's an indication to do the update. 

So, I ended up flashing 1.7.0. It went well. Thank you for your interest. 

@Cheese Rexorum​ Happy that the flash went well and that the system is working well...My compliments to you!

@JOcean I appreciate that.
