Hi there,
thanks for your answer! I think I'm just going to trash this board and stop wasting my time with it. I've also been having some ridiculous issues with the SATA ports (some just can't see my drives or end up freezing while in use, while I'm 100% sure it's not a problem related to any of my HDDs), which somehow disappeared after some random tweaking. Now that I've updated the Bios, they're also back...
Anyway, I bought an Intel board, while thinking naively that this would be the best choice for using a Intel processor... I couldn't have been more wrong! It's ridiculously far from Intel standards (I've never been disappointed with an Intel product) and not worth the price they're asking. it just looks like it's built like a 2nd-rate product and performs horrendously. The fact that they cannot nail something as basic as USB support even after a year of Bios updates pretty much says it all.
Regards,
Denis
