Ok guys, a student of mine at NIIT Ghana brought me a laptop, which he formatted with Windows 8 and his not able to install some softwares after the format - I taught for a while and told him to go for a BIOS Update.
Unluckily for him, he came the next class day, saying;

"Sir, i updated and now my PC cannot boot across the BIOS anymore, when i press the power button, it loads the BIOS and shutdown."
