Hi there,

sadly, without a supported CPU you won't be able to flash back to an earlier BIOS version and, as your motherboard is an older verson with only a single BIOS chip there is no back-up to try and kick in.

The only practical suggestions are either to contact a local PC company in your area and see if they can do the BIOS flash for you, try and find a friend or neighbour who has a supported CPU  and is prepared to let you borrow it so that you can reflash the BIOS or try contacting Gigabyte Tech Support via this link: http://ggts.gigabyte.com/tech.asp?ClassID=2&Country=Indonesia&SourceWeb=B2C and see if there is something that they can do to help.
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
