I don't have any specific instructions for updating the bios.  I was
just offering to provide a Windows boot floppy if you needed one.  That
would be so you could boot to a DOS prompt and run the update program. I
suspect the *.exe file you have is a self-extracting archive that
contains several files, including instructions and a *.bat file.

Intel has good instuctions for running thier BIOS updates:

http://www.intel.com/design/motherbd/standardbios.htm

The instruction on that site cover creating the boot floppy.  Since you
have access to a Win98 machine, you can use it to create your boot
floopy.
