It could be that your mobo is now toast. Try clearing the cmos with the jumper and see if you can boot after that.

Thanks ANFPS26 for your reply! Guess its to RMA Land. At least it is under warranty

Thanks again

Strickly speaking a bad bios flash is your fault and not the manufactures.
You probably won't get an RMA if you tell them you tried to flash the board.
If you find you claim gets rejected then there are alternatives: like sending your bios chip away for reprogramming to a company like bad flash.

Replying helps further our knowledge, without comment leaves us wondering.

customers board, claimed Winflash program (which is provided by board maker) failed before flash was ever began causing no boot condition. Since this was done with mfgs.
program following instructions provided by the mfg. seems like it may be mfg. problem.

thanks for the badflash tip though, I filed it away for future use

thanks
