全量更新和增量更新

There are few things as irritating as a Blue Screen of Death, but sometimes there is an easy fix for it like updating the BIOS for instance. If multiple updates are available though, do you do incremental updates or can you just use the latest version directly? Today’s SuperUser Q&A post has some helpful advice for a curious reader.

问题 (The Question)

SuperUser reader Sam J. Dennis wants to know if he should do incremental updates or just use the latest version to bring his computer’s BIOS up to date:

超级用户读者Sam J. Dennis想知道他应该执行增量更新还是仅使用最新版本来更新其计算机的BIOS：

I have been experiencing some BSOD issues and one of the recommendations for fixing the STOP: Error I have seen is a BIOS update. I went to the ASUS website, found the motherboard I am using (P8Z77), and noticed that there are about 5-6 updates to the version of BIOS the motherboard currently has on it.

我一直在遇到一些BSOD问题，并且修复STOP的建议之一：我看到的错误是BIOS更新。我访问了ASUS网站，找到了我正在使用的主板(P8Z77)，并注意到该主板当前具有的BIOS版本大约有5-6个更新。

What is the best thing for me to do? Do I do incremental flashes from the current version on the motherboard all the way up to the latest version available, or can I just flash the latest version directly?
对我来说最好的事情是什么？我是从主板上的当前版本一直升级到可用的最新版本，还是可以直接刷新最新版本？

Which is better, incremental updates or using the latest version only?

增量更新或仅使用最新版本哪个更好？

答案 (The Answer)

SuperUser contributors Ayan and Tonny have the answer for us. First up, Ayan:

超级用户贡献者Ayan和Tonny为我们找到了答案。首先，Ayan：

You can simply flash the latest version of BIOS. The firmware is always provided as a full image that overwrites the old one, not as a patch, so the latest version will contain all the fixes and features that were added in the previous versions. There is no need for incremental updates.
您只需刷新BIOS的最新版本即可。固件始终以覆盖旧版本的完整映像而不是补丁程序的形式提供，因此最新版本将包含以前版本中添加的所有修补程序和功能。不需要增量更新。

Followed by the answer from Tonny:

随后是Tonny的回答：

Just a word of advice. After any flash you should always reset the BIOS settings to factory default, then reconfigure the settings to the way you want them to be. Sometimes a new version of BIOS uses previously configured values in a different way. Resetting to default values ensures that all settings have a properly defined value (using the internal logic of the new BIOS version).
只是一个建议。刷新后，应始终将BIOS设置重置为出厂默认设置，然后将设置重新配置为所需的设置。有时，新版BIOS会以其他方式使用先前配置的值。重置为默认值可确保所有设置都具有正确定义的值(使用新BIOS版本的内部逻辑)。
