      Greetings Ben!               BR> Hi All,               BR> I recently upgraded to USB 3.0 which works great once Wins 7 Pro is        BR> running, but the BIOS won't recognize the USB 3.0 drives as bootable.        BR> I have an Intel DH55HC Mobo with the latest BIOS update. Doc's at        BR> Intel say USB 3.0 is supported at the BIOS level ... one note says to        BR> enable the xHCI bit but I don't have that option in the BIOS setup :(        BR> The USB 3.0 hardware is provided by a PCIe card. When I had a SATA        BR> port card in that slot it booted fine.               BR> Anyone else booting from USB 3.0 drives?              I'm still stuck with v1.0 USB ports...but, I did buy a PNY 8gb memory       stick that came with instrucions on using it to boot a system. I may have       to review that procedure and see if it's plausable to do on v1.0 USBs.                      Have a day!               R\%/itt - K5RXT              --- GoldED+/W32 1.1.5-31012       --- D'Bridge 3.99        * Origin: South-Texas Area Hub - Gulf Coast Backbone (1:387/22)    |
