System was working great, then I tried to upgrade the BIOS.

Is there any way to recover from the instant FF no post problem?

Tried the following:

-removing battery for 30 minutes
-CMOS jumper
-1 MB stick of memory in slot 0
-Removing second 8800GT graphics card
-Unplugging and holding reset button
-booting from CD

Do I need to return what looks like a great board, or is there a way out of this?

Started a ticket tonight, but wanted to see if anybody is online who can help.

thanks!

What board do you have? What did you use to update the BIOS? Can you PM me your ticket number? There isn't really anything that you can do that you haven't already.

Thanks for the quick reply!

RMA time. Tech support thinks I will need to replace the BIOS chip. I was hoping that they could mail me a new chip, but I will have to send in the motherboard.

Can't wait--this board has some nice features.
