Failed Update bios Asrock 970 Pro 3 2.0

[FilGoncalves]

Hi. Recently I was updating my BIOS by windows mode (I known that I was stupid) and my PC frooze.Now when I try to startup my PC he beeps twice short (parity error) and black screen.
I tried to clean CMOS and nothing....I reseat the RAMs and nothing... I just don't know what to do.. And if it's possible to fix it 🙁.
I checked all cables and they are all ok.
I have this PC for about 3 years and it was all good. It's my baby . Recently my PC started to freeze sometimes and I had all the drivers updated. The only thing that was not it was the motherboard. So that was why I tried to updated. Back in a while i update the mobo when my PC started to crash and then it was all good. But this time....I ruined my PC 🙁 .
I also have the bios flash update on a pen but there is no energy going to the USBs and so the mobo can't find the update.
Can anyone help me?

Hi, You can try ordering a BIOS chip on ebay and replacing the board's one.
If under 3 yrs, you can contact ASRock and RMA the board.

''updating my BIOS by windows mode '' never a good idea if you need to flash do it the manual way too many things can go wrong with the software way as you now see

that board may have a socketed bios chip [like a cpu] contact asrock and I think if so you can get or buy a bios chip preflashed ready to go pull the old one out and pop the new chip in

example of a 3ed party chip and the tool to remove it

seemed like asrock does it for 15 bucks for the chip if not under full warrantee and mail one to you ?? just got to contact there support and work it out

I ended buying a new chip for the motherboard and it worked. It really saved me money for not buying a new motherboard and the chip even comes with the newest version of the motherboard.

I've learned my lesson hehhee
Thanks for the support

good deal.. the socketed bios chips can be a saver if it was soldered in bios chip then a new board or some handy soldering skils would of been needed

glad its good and enjoy
