The BIOS was updated in Aug, 2022 to Ver.7B86vHG and the chipset drivers to Ver.4.07.13.2243 in Sept. 2022 (same for Win10 and Win 11).

The LAN driver was updated in Sept.22 (do you play games online?) for Win 11 only, and the audio drivers in April 2022.

If you update the audio drivers (sometimes they can cause kernel 41 errors) see the Note in the driver link.

Here's the [https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-GAMING-PLUS-MAX/support#bios|support webpage] for the motherboard, for the BIOS and the drivers I mentioned.

Maybe work backwards and update the LAN drivers (if Win 11 installed) first and allow some time to see if any errors are still occurring. Then if they're still occurring update the audio drivers (or do these first if Win 10 installed) and allow some time to see if any errors are still occurring.
If not any more then good or if still occurring then update the chipset drivers and again allow time to see if the problem is still there.
Finally update the BIOS last of all and check.
The reason I suggest doing it this way is that the BIOS is fundamental to the operation of the motherboard and the operating system and updating it can cause problems sometimes so I never suggest updating it just to see if it will solve the problem if there are other options that you can try first. If it is working OK the BIOS doesn't need to be updated unless there's a security issue or a known bug that needs fixing and the description for the latest update doesn't imply this.
The other reason I'm suggesting this procedure is because if you do everything at once then if something goes wrong you don't know which update caused the problem and it is harder to get it back to what it was as you have to roll back everything including the BIOS which may not be easy or even possible. If you do everything at once and it works well and good but you still don't know which update fixed the problem which may not bother you but would bother me if it occurred again sometime in the future.
