Help !!! VAIO won't start after BIOS upgrade to R0220DA

Hi Guys.

 

I was prompted to apply an update to the BIOS on my VAIO, after I did this it won't start now !

 

The model number on the back of my VAIO is SVF152C29M, although if I press the ASSIST button and go into the BIOS setup it reports the machine name as SVF1521C5E, not sure why that is different ?

 

The VAIO is running Windows 8.1 and has all available updates applied.

 

Last night I booted up the system and was prompted to upgrade the BIOS to version R0220DA, so I followed the instructions, but when the system restarted it came up with the white VAIO logo and the little spinning circle of white dots, but after a few seconds the spinnning circle of dots just freezes.

 

So, the problem has clearly been caused by the update, but how do I fix it ?

 

Please help !!!!!!

 

Faith x
