When I built my computer, there was a BIOS update and I downloaded the update and I don't know how to install it. I tired researching, but it doesn't help much. My MOBO is in "My System Specs."
 
If everything is working then don't worry about it
 
bios updates ALMOST never resolve any issues with the OS
 
If you go at motherboard homepage, at bios section:
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/760GM-P21--FX-.html#/?div=BIOS
here you will find "About how to flash the BIOS, please refer to BIOS flash SOP" with link at a page with picture , how to update bios, I allways update my bios to new version(even the frimware/bios for dvd-rw/vga card/usb3 controller), but be aware that allways it is a chance to brick the mootherboard or to have to reinstall windows after that....
