"TLDR; I spent more than an hour repairing this laptop only to discover it had a corrupted BIOS. I am seeing more and more of this type of issue because Microsoft is now pushing out BIOS firmware updates with its driver updates. The only way that I have found to stop this issue is to disable optional updates or, better yet, check and update your BIOS firmware yourself every couple of months to prevent one from being pushed to your laptop when you are not ready for it."
 

 
Is there a way to prevent Windows from trying to update my Bios?

the MB - BIOS should have the ability to not allow any auto updates (disable updates), or just password protect the BIOS is another option (don't forget the password, if it is a firmware level lock you will need it)
 
--> malware has been known to do "bad things to BIOS" .... that is why you want updates to BIOS disabled
 
News to me that Microsoft is pushing BIOS updates; though I've seen them "push you to update your BIOS, to stop malware"
you have to wonder if these laptops have some BIOS setting for "auto update" .... seems to be mostly laptop users complaining, as far as my web search showed

Forced updates are asinine...I still think they should stop doing that.
 
 

Many BIOs have safety features to prevent overwrite.
