Which revision is your motherboard?

Rev 1.0 & 1.2 last BIOS update was released in Oct 2013

Rev. 3.0 last BIOS release in May 2014.

Make sure that you download the correct BIOS for your motherboard revision and I would strongly recommend using the QFlash utility NOT @BIOS when it comes to updating the BIOS.
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.
