just flashed to the 1.52 beta bios and now my machine won't even boot past the bios screen. I removed the soundcard and reset the cmos jumper and still the computer turns on posts for about 4 seconds and then turns itself off.

What do I do now to get the older bios back in there and working again!?!? Anyone who can help let me know this is an EMERGENCY now!!!

Hold insert when you boot (hold it before you hit the power button). This should get you through the bios so that you can flash again. Hope it helps

EDIT: changed f1 to insert.

The 1.52 has been known to have issues. You need to hotflash or reflash the bios chip if you can.
 
and another 1.52 fatality.You need to replace or hotflash the bios.
