 From what I know, if the motherboard has a backup bios (sometimes 
called "dual bios"), you might be able to save the motherboard by 
booting to the backup. If not, the manufacturer might be able to 
re-flash the chip, but you would have to send them the motherboard.

Sorry I can't help you more, but I wish you good luck recovering it!
