Not a personal criticism -- but I really wish folks would stop thinking of BIOS updates as Miracle Cures! I can think of no reason at all why a BIOS update would solve an issue of a battery not holding a charge -- as that is almost certainly a hardware problem with the battery itself.
You said you bought a new battery, but the last time I did that, the new battery was only 30% charged! It took hours to charge it up to 100% And, if I understand what you are saying, this new battery did not charge up.
IF you are still running the BIOS update after 5 hours, it is NOT going to complete -- and no matter what you do now, you have trashed the PC! So, you have no choice other than to power it down -- and hope that it powers on again.
