How did you update the BIOS if it doesn't boot? Flashback? Are you sure it worked properly? I would start by shutting down completely, pulling the battery, then hold the CMOS clr button for 30 seconds and let the PC sit for a couple hours. Put the battery back in leave all the ssd drives disconnected and see if it boots.
Flashback needs the BIOS file unzipped and renamed to C6H.CAP, put on a FAT32 formatted thumb drive in the root directory meaning not in a folder. Put it in the right USB slot on the back and hold the FB button until it starts to flash blue back there. This should speed up at some point and takes 3-5 minutes to complete. I would also recommend this BIOS file as I know it wors well. It's version 1701 from the ASUS support site http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb...32.434216311.1516027245-1959866619.1466682659

^ He might have already fixed the problem. Your last line is correct as it is a BIOS problem. Code 08 is a CPU microcode error. When I got my mobo in Nov, it had the BIOS from Mar. Luckily mine boot with no problem

What are you using for a CPU cooler? The CHVI has the AM3 holes but doesn't always play nice with old coolers. The brackets put an odd pressure on the socket and it won't boot.
