    Hm, I guess that should be visible somewhere in the BIOS, need to have a look later.

      They’re asking for the newest version of firmware available, not the one you have installed. Check the website of your motherboards manufacturer to see if they have anything.

        It is a laptop that is more than 10 years old. Don’t think I ever updated the BIOS on it. So I guess that could mean it is going to be affected?

        https://www.asus.com/ie/supportonly/ux433fn/helpdesk_bios/ it is this one, latest bios update is 2021. So I guess I might be screwed? Even if I use that to update, I mean?

            Seems like that is the only way for now, so I’ll backup stuff and do it. I’ve been reading so many opinions how important it even is, I don’t think it is going to impact my use case of the laptop.

            Thanks for responding!
