ASUS P5k Deluxe -- Update BIOS Now Comp Won't Boot
Environment:
ASUS P5K Deluxe Motherboard
Q6600
4GB Mushkin DDR2 800
8800GTX
Windows Vista Ultimate x64
I was getting an "Intel CPU uCode loading error" and some driver issues, so I decided I'd try to update my BIOS from the 202 version to the 404 version.
I downloaded the BIOS from asus.com, threw them into the ASUS update utility, and it said they erased correctly, flashed correctly, but had a problem validating. I pressed flash again, and then it said it had a problem erasing. I stupidly tried to open Firefox to run a search, and then my computer crashed. I got a BSOD with a 0x024 error.
Now my computer boots up, I hear everything start up, but after a few seconds, it shuts back down. After another few seconds it starts back up and repeats over and over.
I nearly died when this happened. Is there anything I can do without sending the board back to ASUS?
Thanks!
