Entering Setup.....AX4SG-UN

[Guest]

I have an AOpen AX4SG-UN, part 91.8AT10.003 that will not enter the BIOS
setup. I hit DEL to enter and it just stays at:

Entering Setup.....

I have left it there for 20 minutes and it just sits there, or just shuts
off.

I've cleared the CMOS and it boots says:
CMOS checksum error - Defaults Loaded

Press F1 to continue or DEL to enter setup

I hit DEL and it hangs.

Should I return the board as DOA or try and flash the BIOS? I just built an
identical computer with no issues. I don't want to risk flashing the bios
and thrn having to return the board as DOA anyway since they might not take
it back.

Thanks for any suggestions.

This ended up being a defective motherboard that was returned as DOA. It
was shutting off because the cpu fan was stopping.
