Hi vpz, you've appear to have covered more than just the 'basics' with your Taichi.
Also, numerous reviewers of the X370 Taichi & Fatality X370 Professional Gaming have all commented on being 'disappointed' that their isn't a 'Dual Bios' implementation on such 'premium' X370 boards. Disappointed as it would assist a user to recover from a corrupted/failed Bios or to at least assist in troubleshooting.
You mentioned you had "been around since the slot Athlon days", you may have had many electronic items and recognize the fact: they fail in the first 90 days... or last years until failure. Perhaps that is what has happened.
So, there is not any way to 'recover' from a corrupted/failed bios by accessing a secondary/backup bios as there is none. If all the efforts you have tried and that others have suggested(various CMOS clearing/flashing via F2 here: http://www.asrock.com/support/BIOSUI.asp?cat=DOS4 ...) then it may be an RMA or return to retailer(or e-tailer).

My question is really simple, and requires a answer?that is at best case 3 words short:?
Does this motherboard has ANY bios recovery features ?
