No boot after BIOS upgrade - please help!
I updated my Asus P8Z68-V LX motherboard from the first BIOS edition to the most recent, the update went OK with no apparent problems, now when I reboot the machine it gets to the windows 7 screen (where the 4 coloured dots swirl around) and then it restarts, I've tried all the restart options - safe mode, last known good config, etc. I have 2 mirrored Samsung SSD's with the windows 7 OS, both behave the same. The drives are set to ACHI in the BIOS (but they behave the same if set to IDE or raid). I've tried all repaitr options available on the windows 7 disk and done repeated repairs until eventually it says it "cannot repair the computer manually" no explanation of the problem is given. I've tried removing all harware except the essentials but nothing makes any diffference. Please can anyone see what I'm missing?
Thanks.
