Do i need to update the BIOS once i have done this?
Do i also need to update the serial number of the machine?
No, you should not have to upflash the BIOS and re-tattoo the machine - Assuming your replacement board has the proper OS entitlements already tattooed onto the UEFI , it should be picked up by the OS (Windows 10, I hope) and automatically re-activated. In fact, I imaged a Miix 2 8 out using a bootable USB drive + Clonezilla, and was able to image it into a new board and have everything re-activate just fine.
