its very hard to read sentences without any separators in them it makes it also almost impossible to understand your problem which makes it even harder to come up with a solution so if youd still want someone to help you you should really supply some useful information like brand model type of mainboard and some general info on the system using software recommended on this site

Please post everything you see on your Blue screen. Even if the message mentions a Bios Update the cause of the error is almost something else.

The error message yhould give you a STOP xxxx code, use a web search engine to find out more details and possible solutions.

information on the mainboard and bios:

but i agree with Denniss: the source of the bluescreens isn't the bios but something else like faulty ram, overheating cpu or some flaky software.
