In order to update BIOS you have to have a flash program.
Usually it is supplied by the motherboard manufacturer and
is available from their website. Along with the latest
version of the BIOS for the motherboard in a file, usually xxx.BIN although it may be called something else.

However in almost every case they will advise you to boot into DOS and run their loader program to flash/update the BIOS.

One way to do it:

Copy their loader and BIOS update to a blank floppy.

Make sure that your BIOS is set to boot from A: first.

Put in a bootable DOS diskette in Drive A: and boot.

Swap out the DOS diskette, put in the BIOS update disk
and run the update program.

If you don't have a DOS disk this is how you can make one:

Download this program DOS622.EXE

Put a formatted floppy in the A: drive.

Run the downloaded program

You now have a bootable DOS diskette.

It's also a good idea to read any instructions on the manufacturers website.
