There is your answer to your problem. In this situation I would RMA it (if you still got warranty on it) =/
Since you have done a bad flash, you bricked your BIOS and then won't work as it should.

Or you can buy something (don't remember what it's called, but it resets your BIOS) that would fix your bad flash.

It's a new BIOS chip and the replacement is a pain because you have to open the chassis and most chips are soldered on as well.

Ok, then the best thing to do RMA your computer, a bad flash goes under warranty as I have understood.

So if you still got warranty on your computer call Asus Hotline and RMA it, if it's relatively new you could try to go back there you bought your notebook and ask for an exchange to a new one. 🙂

You could try one thing to see if it isn't a bad flash but a bad RAM, take out one RAM stick at the time and see if something changes.
It's just a thought, but I don't think it would work.
