FWIW I have, but under Linux, so it's not unheard of. The Ubuntu installer
(if we are naming and shaming) ran a friendly 'firmware update' at its
conclusion, after which was the last time that machine ever POSTed. At the
time I wrote it off as corrupting EFI somehow but I'm not so sure anymore.
If anyone knows what makes some Intel boards so susceptible to bad firmware
updates, or which chip is getting overwritten (are they being misidentified?)
I'd like to know. I got a free doorstop out of the experience.
