1. Nope.
2. Reloading or upgrading the video driver may fix it if the problem is
that the video driver has been corrupted somehow.
3. Most BIOS updaters are Windows apps nowadays; there's little danger
in performing an update & it usually takes longer to find the update on
the vendor's site than it does to install (not counting the post-install
reboot). Dell advises only applying updates when the system is on AC
power which seems like a good precaution.
