Updating(flash?) my BIOS

[iwingi]

Hello everyone!
I had a quick question for you all. I've updated my BIOS in the past from 1.000 to 1.2.
Although, I've gone back to look for more updates and it's now 1.5
Therefore I was wondering if updating it from 1.2 to 1.5 directly would cause any issues.
I ask this because 1.5 is smaller than all the other updates therefore I assume you need to increment your way to 1.5
Thanks for any input you can provide, Link:

No need for incremental update unless its clearly specified on bios download/readme page. It never is. Its just a patch, it doesnt have to be the size of a full rom image.

Please read the information below before downloading or updating your BIOS
We don’t recommend users to update the BIOS if their system is already running normally. ASRock? assumes no responsibility for any damages caused by improper operations of downloading or updating the BIOS. Before you download or update the BIOS, please read " (How to Update)" below carefully.

1. Support Windows 8.
2. Update CPU code.

Note: "Ultra Fast" is only supported by below conditions.
1. OS is Windows 8.
2. Graphics supports UEFI GOP.

Its an update for new processors, nothing else so not really necessary unless you want to upgrade to that new set of CPUs.

Id suggest doing it from Windows OS, with a note that some "Ultra Fast mode" is supported only if you run Win8 and your graphics supports UEFI GOP.

Im not going to be held responsible if you fry your mainboard. Just for the record.

Alright, I updated to 1.4, 1.5 gave me a warning before it started:
PI version in SYS ROM mismatched PI in ROM file.
Therefore I decided not to do that one lol
Thanks.
