  1. Download the latest BIOS from here and the BIOS update tool from here.
  2. Format a USB drive to FAT32 (important).
  3. Extract and put the contents of both downloads on the formatted USB. Those files and nothing else.
  4. Restart computer in safe mode by tapping F8 on start up.
  5. Follow the remaining instructions from 3-65 to 3-67 here.
  6. You'll need the motherboard support DVD that came with your motherboard.

I was just thinking, if I can't get it to post (which I don't think it is doing) than I can't boot from the USB can I?

No, I did think of that afterwards. Does your motherboard have a dual bios, where you can switch from one to the other. Usually a throw-switch.

It doesn't look like it. Seeing as how it was apparently freezing before, per my wife, I am going to just order another one today. :(

Gives me more USB 3.0 plugs anyway if I get the gamer one.

Looks like it was the Motherboard. I just installed a new Asus Z97-Pro Gamer and it fired right up (after scaring the hell out of me with an alert that a new processor was installed lol)
Yea!!! Back to being able to watch TV and again lol
