My computer no longer works after attempting to update BIOS. Here's the story: I was trying to update bios because I have read it will stop blue screening on cs:go. I had no experience on how to update a bios, but msi had a .exe to use for updating the bios to 2.6. So I tried updating, It was going good, installer worked and all, but then out of the blue windows blue screens and now when I boot up my computer I hear two beeps. I am aware this means either it's a memory failure or a POST failure. I tried doing a single RAM stick boot, no luck. So it must be a POST failure. Any way I can fix this?

Specs:
MSI 970a-g46
AMD FX 6300
ASUS 650Ti
Windows 7 Home Premium

No fixes except replace BIOS so time for RMA if in warranty.

I suppose so. It is about time I get a new mother. Never was a good combination I read, anyways, but moner strains lead you astray I suppose. Thanks.

Just try removing your Motherboard's battery for 2 minutes and then place it back, but I doubt that will work, maybe the BIOS got corrupt so I suggest sending your motherboard to the warranty.

On their website, its written:

Attention:

Users who download BIOS from here (not using Live Update) should use the flash utility included in the downloaded compressed file when doing the BIOS update. To avoid BIOS update failure, please do not use older versions of the update utility or utilities not provided by MSI.

I have tried that already, I probably should've mentioned that.
