I'm going crazy right now trying to figure out what happened with my motherboard.

Long story short, my MSI Z68A-GD65 board was blinking its BIOS light telling me that my primary BIOS had failed and that it was booting of the secondary BIOS. After searching all of the internet, I first updated my BIOS before figuring out that there was a simply way to restore the primary BIOS.

After many weird quirks like hanging on reboots and what not, I now have a computer that takes 13-15secs to POST. I've searched google both specifically for my motherboard and motherboards in general and can't figure out how to fix it.

Thanks for your help.

P.S. Also, is POST supposed to beep once or like 8 times?
