Check your harddrives or disk drives, there's not many things that would cause a lockup at bios.

Stare at bare hard drive in deep thought for a minute. Then say "hmm IC". That's how I do it anyway.

Check that they're functional, beginning with a simple reseating of all the connectors and such. Then check to see if your hardrives are beginning to brick.

When technology becomes useless due to be being irreversibly broken, people like to say it's "Bricked". As for checking, try here. I didn't really look at it, but the title seems promising. http://www.pcmech.com/article/hard-drive-failure-warnings-and-solutions/

Parts and a kit are provided. I'm low on cash and this is a cheaper alternative.
