Asus and the like don't make BIOS, they get it from AMI or Phoenix or
whatever. It will usually say in POST screens or in the setup itself;
failing that, it might be etched on the chip itself.
In my experience, though, 97% of problems whose symptoms include beep codes
are memory issues. Well, maybe that's a contrived figure, but it is enough
that I'd look for spare memory first and a beep code reference after.
