I have an HP Pavilion a6110, with a M2N68-LA (Narra2) mobo following the tutorial: http://www.bios-mods.com/blog/?p=142 and I used the ASUS version of AWDFLASH. The bios flashed and I can get into it and access every setting, but everytime I boot, it goes to the win 7 starting screen, but before it goes to the login screen it reboots. I have searched around but I've only found people who have this issue and have no visual, I think it was a successful flash but sometime is stopping it from booting, this never happened before the flash so it may be a setting within the bios, I have no idea what it would be, anyone have any ideas? I don't have a second computer to download anything, I'm using my phone for this site right now so downloads for anything will not help.
Thanks in Advance, from what I've seen on this site, I'm confident someone will find a solution c:
Ahh, looks like an AHCI issue, go ahead in to your BIOS Setup (Usually F2) find SATA Mode or somethong that either has IDE/Legacy or AHCI. Toggle that mode and save settings and reboot. Should fix the issue.

If AHCI is on when you cannot boot please consider re-installing the OS to experience performance boost, if it works with AHCI on then you don't need to do anything else.
It no longer boots at all, I tried a solution I found to hold the power after I unplug the computer. After doing that it only boots with 3 short beeps which I found is for bad bios, even though it was working, any way I can get it back? This just happened about 2-3 days ago
I just tried to reset my cmos and now it has continuos shirt beeps
Anyone? Please?
sorry bud, never knew you replied. You tried re-seating the RAM? And did you mess with any settings on BIOS before no boot?
I tried reseating everything and the only thing i did before no boot was reseating the CMOS battery.
