Could it be the LED code is 9.0, not 90? From what I've been able to find, code 9.0 could either mean a problem with the BIOS, or the CPU has been over-overclocked.
"In some cases, 90 means Power On Sequence (PONSEQ), which enables the hardware monitor & Fan EQ. Generally, hanging at 90 means a failed overclock."

Here's the description of code 9.0 direct from the Abit website (this info should also be in your manual):
"Complete uGuru initial process
AWARD BIOS take over booting job"
