Alright I got no idea how to update my BIOS but I'll look into it, and see what happens when I do so. Thanks for that. Once again sorry for my attitude earlier was just spammed with a bunch of school work in a short amount of time. It seems updating BIOS on asus laptops is pretty easy so thats quite nice and seems pretty simple just some USB Shenanigans.
