You can't update your motherboard and chipset without replacing the motherboard. As for the BIOS, if its not broken, don't fix it.

Well, this is the only and latest bios version I found, dated 12/20/01 version A15.
http://216.185.128.200/temp/jetway0c/downloads/bios/663as/663asA15.BIN

Seems it's newer than the one you have (03/26/01)

EDIT: Same suggestion as MeEtc.... only if it's really needed.

Not always, sometimes they just add support for additional CPU's in newer versions.
In that case you don't need the update if the current version is working for you.

It doesn't need updating.
