If the computer shuts down while updating the BIOS you may have destroyed the computer/BIOS. If the computer will not boot then you can't update the BIOS chip again. The only way around this is to buy a new BIOS chip that has been pre-programmed to work with your computer/motherboard.

BUT, dead BIOS symptoms do not match yours. Normally you just have a completely dead computer. If you can get to the BIOS screens then your BIOS should be OK.

This looks more like a failed/failing hard disk. I suggest you run the check disk program and hope for the best.

Good Luck
