Re: Unable to Boot from USB CD/DVD Drive

Hi Gabriel, I put the new BIOS (251112) on my IntensePC, and it does indeed resolve the issue of USB3 not mounting at boot time. I did not test booting off of the USB3 drive as that was not my goal, but it does appear in the boot option menu. Thanks for the help, Duane ps I also see msata in the boo...

Re: Unable to Boot from USB CD/DVD Drive

Hello Duane Please try this BIOS release as a solution to your USB3 problem. Thank You Thanks GabrielH, Could you give me a pointer to the proper method for reflashing a BIOS on a Linux machine.

Re: MSATA

Hi, Like prpixel I was a little depressed that I cannot easily have a setup with SSD boot and a slower data disk. Are there other possible options, even if slower? Will I be able to boot from USB 3.0? How about a miniPCIe adapter for an SDHC? That would at least have the advantage of putting everyth...
