Default Please educate me version 2

Okay. Lets say that you purchase a new motherboard and a new CPU. It turns out the the bios in the motherboard needs to be updated before it will support your new CPU.
What will happen if you fire it up with the unsupported CPU in there? If it won't POST, how will you ever update the Bios to support it?
Thanks.
