ad 2) it seems that you only have the file which contains the new 
firmware/bios; watch out for a *utility* that 'uploads' this file onto 
the hardware. (AFAIR the pc people use mainly DOS-based tools for this 
-- i'm a maccie ;)

ad 3) you want to have a DOS boot disk (kind of) handy and copy both 
the (.bin) file *and* the (to get) utility onto this disk. boot from it 
and run the utility.
