The issue seems to be related to a hardware failure. I believe that there is a hardware failure on the motherboard of your Asus K55A laptop. Remember that the BIOS chip is integrated/built-in on the motherboard. Even if you have a failed processor, hard disk, RAM or video card, you have to still have an access to the BIOS. Unfortunately, the only solution for this is to take the laptop to the service/repair center.
If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask here at HelpOwl. Experts here are always willing to answer your questions to the best of our knowledge and expertise.
