i had the same problem with an intel motherboard on my desktop. If the system goes into this mode then : Any changes made into the BIOS will not be saved. It will always revert to factory default on every start.

How I solved it : I downloaded the BIOS from Intel site. Put it on flash drive. changed the jumper setting of the motherboard to recovery and flashed my bios. and things went back to normal. HOWEVER I CONSIDER IT VERY RISKY , THE COMPUTER WILL BECOME UNUSABLE IF BIOS FLASHING FAILS . DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

here's post on it:
