My computer will not POST. I thought that moving the jumpers around in Boot Block recovery mode would help, but there is still not activity. This has been giving me a headache. I thought I could just flash and update the BIOS from a USB stick, but in reality it's on the contrary. Now my computer will not give any beep code whatsoever.

ON another note, I was playing around with the jumpers in hope to get it to boot successfully and get BIOS, but to no avail. It would be helpful if anybody with this similar computer and motherboard "FMB-1401" model to send a pic of all the jumper pins and how they should be arranged. That may be why I'm not able to use the boot block recovery jumper, and I've also read that the USB stick that the BIOS should be on for flashing should be no more than 512MB. I currently do not have time right now to work on this, but when I do, I would like to proceed and get this desktop up and running again.
