This was a Lenovo. Now I’m wondering if Windows or Linux has a better BIOS.

    The BIOS is an operating system, albeit a super low level one. What is wrong here? It would only be software gore if it said that it was part of the windows operating system, since the BIOS is a system operating system.

      Only thing that’s really off is that most people don’t need to update BIOS with any frequency, if at all, given the potential for ruining your PC. I certainly wouldn’t trust my parents with doing it on their own.

        I feel like security issues should be adressed its just best practice and IME most modern mobos have backups to prevent catastrophic failure
