I am also thanking the gods of UEFI that it is working well for you now!

I'm also relieved you are not cursing this thread and me, I hope it really did help you, thanks!

Mother board manufactures get the honor of supporting booting an OS from these new SSDs, and providing some support about installing Windows on them, although they are unrelated to the sources of those products. I wonder if they are sending users with questions about this to us!!

Kurt, doing what you did on an older board is the most difficult way to do it, so give yourself some credit!
