Have seen the P67 Extreme 4 Gen 3 around that price, but not the Z68. Perhaps he's got the chipsets mixed up, that would be a mega bargain £145 for a Z68 Gen3 :)
 
Anyone having any problems transferring files from a usb3 hardrive onto an internal drive?

During the transfer it will pause and stop or just not respond.
 
Hi guys,

Just installed the system in my signature and the system is hanging on bios splash screen. After say a minute or two, it boots into windows and the system is behaving as normal.

No real errors on the motherboard during the process, just pretty slow. Any ideas would be appreciated as I have checked everything.

Cheers

FYI

Talking of signatures, yours is too big.

You may use a signature (commonly used in email messages) in your posts. You can specify in your profile a signature to use at the bottom of your posts. When you post, there is an option to use your signature. A signature may contain one or more images but they must fit within a box with maximum dimensions of 400 x 75 pixels (width x height) and with a maximum (combined) file size of 20k. Images containing mostly very large words or animated .gifs will not be permitted. You may also add 1 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text directly above or underneath the image with no spaces inbetween image and text. If no images are used then up to 4 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text is permitted. Do not pad out your text lines with blanks lines. A line of text is defined as having a maximum length of 400 pixels. If you want to turn the signature off in the future, you can come back and edit your post. If you have specified a signature in your profile, the box will be automatically ticked for you.

Your SSD drive will come in IDE mode. Go into Bios and enable ACHI mode and then attach and install OS on the SSD.
What other settings are you using in Bios ?

Try disabling the splash screen in Bios. Mine shows for a few secs after updates, but nothing like your saying... Normal boot time is probs around 4 secs i would say ?
