I don't suppose you have access to another z68 motherboard?

As without detailed testing, I'd guess your motherboard doesn't have long left but that is just a guess...

I guess the issue is with your motherboard. Perhaps try resetting it by unplugging the battery and replacing it? While you're on it, try unplugging CPU and RAM as well. leave the mobo disconnected for 20+ seconds. This will help discharge static current.

Carefully place everything back together. See if that solves the issue.
