The title explains it. I updated my below board (REV 1.0) version from F1 to Version F10 and it passed. Yay.... Then, when it reset, it just started cycling (5+ times or more) without ever showing a BIOS splash... On, fans spin, off. On, fans spin, off - Rinse and repeat. Why would this be, that it passes, then loops?... Anyone?

IT was a dual BIOS board. GA Z68MA-D2H-B3. Thanks.

It passed, "I updated my above board (REV 1.0) version from F1 to Version F10 and it passed". AND, it is a DUAL BIOS board.

Are you saying it's normal for it to cycle on and off 5 or more times after exiting QFlash after passing? That's a much better explanation than, "you bricked your motherboard". Seriously, that doesn't help me understand anything! OR are you saying even though it just kept cycling on and off after passing that I should have hit DEL or something after 5 cycles? Can you be more specific, keeping in mind there was no splash screen etc, so no visible option to enter BIOS after flash process.

Stating the obvious is redundant and superfluous - trolling doesn't really help anyone learn anything.

I was told by someone that after the successfully "passed" BIOS flash which I had sometimes the system will need to reboot several times, so maybe I didn't wait enough reboots. That's the best answer I've been given so far, so thought I'd post it for anyone else flashing their BIOS And getting a few boot loops. I only waited 4 or 5 and probably should have waited 10 or 20 before doing something... But what that "something" is I do not know.
