Default Sincere Need of [Bad] BIOS Help
I have a DFI LANParty UT NF680i LT mobo and the BIOS is bad. Whenever I start it up, the error code is 88 and there is not even a post. How can I fix the BIOS?

Flash it? Don't know if your MB can do that if the current BIOS is corrupt, however..

Contact DFI, they will usually flash your bios chip for free and if you talk nice they may even send you one for free first. ASUS sent me a new one last year and when I had issues flashing to the latest version, I sent both to them, they flashed them and sent them back no charge.
