    There is nothing wrong with Intel BIOS Bits, it seems pretty accurate to me.
    It's testing pretty basic stuff by doing hardware calls. Blame ASUS...

    Thanks Zalbard
    So theoretically, would it be possible to code a fix for those issues? Or is it beyond fixing?

    Assuming you have the source code for your bios, then it'll be trivial to fix those issues; However if your motherboard doesn't support an open source bios. Well, you are screwed until your manufacture fixes the problems. Expect 9 months to never for that to be solved.

    The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.
