I figured that since I wont 'risk' any DOS flash, I used MSI live update 3 utility to upgrade my BIOS. It never completed successfully and I reset the computer.I cannot now load the computer nor get access to my BIOS.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :(

I don't think there's anything you can do to resolve this. You're most likely going to have to order a new BIOS chip from MSI.

From the MSI website ,found when collecting new Bioses for a couple of different MSI Boards.


BIOS Recovery Feature

For AMI BIOS

1. Rename the desired AMI BIOS file to AMIBOOT.ROM and save it on a floppy disk.
e.g. Rename A569MS23.ROM to AMIBOOT.ROM

2. Insert this floppy disk in the floppy drive.
Turn On the system and press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update.
It will read the AMIBOOT.ROM file and recover the BIOS from the A drive.

3. When 4 beeps are heard you may remove the floppy disk and restart the computer.
