Hey y'all, first post here so go easy, please? :D
So have just built an HTPC based on this board and a Core i3 2125. All works good until I plug an Edimax 7612 (Realtek 8192CE chipset) wireless N card into the PCI Express port. System won't POST - it powers up for a couple of seconds, shuts down, pauses for a few seconds then repeats ad infinitum.
I've tried the NIC in my Z68X-UD7-B3 system and it works fine. I've also tried a PCIe 1x SATA card in the H61 box and again everything works, so sounds like some sort of incompatibility with the Realtek LAN card and the H61N-USB3. Maybe it's trying to enumerate the card as a VGA adapter or something equally dumb?
I've tried the F3 and F4B BIOSes, have checked it's set to start from the onboard VGA (and have run through all the different options there without altering the system's behaviour) so can't think what else to try. Gigabyte support tends not to be the fastest so I thought I'd ask here first whether anyone else has run up against or solved a problem like this? TIA!
