Default OT: System and Video BIOS Question

I was doing some software upgrading recently, and I downloaded SiSoft's latest Sandra system benchmark software. Checking out the system and video sections, it informed me that my system and video BIOS's are very old (from around 1998).

I know nothing about these programs (or even if they are technically programs) other than they allow the hardware to work with the software. Do I really need newer Versions? If so, how do I go about finding them? And, how do I know exactly which ones I need?

I know we have a few IT experts here. If one of you could help, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Edit: I should probably give you some system information.
System: Dell Dimension v400c with Celeron 400 Mhz
CPU: P6C Celeron 300-533 MHz 2v
BIOS: Intel 4A4RB0X0.10A.0020.P07
OS: Windows 98 (no bLaster worm, woohoo!)
Integrated Video: ATI XPERT 980 AGP 2X
