I hate marketing. I didn't fall for this one though. I just went to newegg and found a board that got a lot of good reviews but wasn't too expensive. At the point I figured I would just go w/the legacy side of things and ignore the UEFI 'option', which doesn't even appear to be an option.
Update! Now it's BSOD'ing at every restart. System_license_violation.
All I want to do is reinstall windows.
After restarting and running System Repair and having it say 'sorry', Hit any key to shut down, I moved the SATA cable on the board to the next sata location and it booted up.
I really don't know what to do with this thing.
What are you using for Windows 7 Installation?
Retail DVD?
OEM DVD?
Download?
Bug Check 0x9A: SYSTEM_LICENSE_VIOLATION (Windows Debuggers)
"This bug check indicates that the software license agreement has been violated"
So does this mean the License problem is gone?
Or does "sorry" mean you could not run System Repair?
Be sure the SATA cable for the SSD is connected as shown below.

Do not connect any other hard drives until you have Windows installed and the system set up properly.
Be sure your BIOS settings are set up like this:

Try not to change any other BIOS settings other than Boot Priority until you get the system working correctly on the FAIL SAFE DEFAULTS.
I'm using a retail upgrade disc. I was able to install with it once.
I installed XP on the drive first and then installed 7 Pro over it.
The pc that originally had this disc on it hasn't been used for years. I assume that I would be able to register the product and all and if not I would call MS. I mean...I'm not using the OS on 2 PCs.
Update: I moved the sata cable to 1 (it was in o) and now it's running again.
It installed 69 updates and I shut it down.
If history proves itself; when I start it up it will go straight into System Repair and I will have to restore. Then it will shut down and upon restart Win will run again. If I plug the DVD back into the board everything will go to hell again. There will be a bunch of System restores and 'sorry your PC is broken' and then eventually it will boot again.
I'm about to start a new thread about this build. So many things have gone wrong with this build and I'm really beginning to wonder if it's not the board.
I'll post a link in this thread.
Just to prove me wrong my PC updated and started up just fine. :-/
Just bizarre behavior. I log in and go to Windows updates. There are 4 optional Win7 updates. I install, it finishes and says that 1 failed. I close it and open update again and there are 48 recommended updates. This is all within 60 seconds.
Anyways, I will post another thread today hopefully.
Oops. I missed your post above. I will check it.
Windows BSOD while installing updates. Oh look, error recovery again. *sigh*
