Is this the method you are trying? >>>

Have you removed the battery and put a jumper on the clear CMOS pins and let it set for 30 minutes with the PSU unplugged? And have you tried with no other hardware only CPU, One stick of ram, and gfx card? No drives connected?

Yes, this is the method I tried (BIOS Recovery procedures - My Digital Life Forums
Another question: have you a list of gigabyte M/B that uses the Macronix 25L8005M2C BIOS Chip? Do you know if the Gigabyte GA-M61SM use this BIOS Chip? I imagine that my last chance is try to Hot Flash my Bios with another M/B that uses the same BIOS Chip!

2 beeps means BIOS/CMOS error you are either going to have to try with some other ram or RMA the board

You should try to clear the CMOS again since you are now getting the CMOS error
