    Asus Bios does use F8 but if you wait to hit F8 until just as the Asus splash screen ends or right after it ends you should get safe mode options. You may have to try a few times to get the timing just right.

    Also, when it says it can't repair you should be able to get to Advanced options where System Restore should be on the list.

    Go into BIOS settings and enable all 4 cores.

    Hit the BIOS settings hotkey during initial boot splash screen (usually one of the F keys, like F11 or F2 or whatever, varies from one model motherboard to the next)

    Have you tried re-setting your CMOS or BIOS jumper yet? IF you don't know what I am talking about find somebody who does before you destroy your computer (and in the future - If you don't know what it is or does don't screw with it)
