    Is the Bios update you downloaded a different version that you already have? before you ask I havnt lost my mind!! ;) it may well be you already have the latest version, sadly we cannot double check for you as you supplied no hardware details.

    Ah ok... wow they brought that update out quick quickly.. 10 days later!

    Try updating it from Safe Mode and or without Antivirus running, also check your Bios for any sort of Bios lock/safety/virus feature and disable.. then try again.

    running out of ideas, but try reseting the Bios Real Time Clock and save bios settings ( wrong time can throw out checksum errors )

    you are not overclocking are you?
