Yes, however there won't be any "future necessary updates" if we don't know what to update.
To help us figure that out please try downloading and installing all of these:

When downloaded you can install them in a terminal by running:
cd ~/Downloads sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb

Now check that the new kernel is active by running:
uname -a
and send us the result that you see.
