Taichi UEFI Update Froze Now Bricked

Re-creating a bootable stick isn't exactly what I call work. But anyways ..........

I will add that a stick in the 4-16GB range from Users posts here seem to be less troublesome.



I'd suggest then that you call the below number and request an RMA

Just repeat the process, and if the problem still persists, update the original BIOS file. If the Flash Memory Writer utility was not able to successfully update a complete BIOS file, your system may not be able to boot up. If this happens, your system will need service. http://www.asrock.com/support/BIOSIG.asp?cat=DOS8 While you may have had other problems during the failed BIOS update attempt, unfortunately powering off the PC will have caused it to be unrecoverable, sorry to say.

if you know what the chip is called and fancy a little DIY you can buy the chips off bay of e with bios's already on them just a simple install but if its under warranty better to have them do it for future reference they cost very little and are great if you can revive a dead board for a few quid. usually this method takes less time long as you know what your doing
