During the BIOS recovery and using an USB thumb drive, did you disconnect all peripherals not required for the update, even the mouse, keyboard, hard drives and any other CD/DVD ROM? We have seen in the past that when other peripherals are connected, the BIOS recovery may fail.
One thing you may also try before the update is doing a BIOS recovery. You clear the CMOS removing the CMOS battery and all power cables from the power supply to the motherboard, leaving the system without power for 20 minutes at least
Furthermore, when the BIOS is too out dated, is recommended to do the updates in a progressive way, by using middle versions between what you have and the latest. Specially when the ME firmware has been changed between releases. For this you can test using the next release, BIOS version 0091
To check the firmware versions between BIOS releases, you can check the release notes here:
