Re: I sort of feel like giving up - EP45-UD3R
I haven't used the purple ports for very long on any motherboard I had in the past.
I used them on this board as a temporary measure to resolve an issue with swapping out intel drivers to enable AHCI after the operating system was already installed and they were useful for that alone, but I don't think they are useful for anything other than maybe e-sata where its not in use long term.
As for the boards, I still think there is some sort of design or production problem occuring here as lots of people are complaining.
Most of the problems I had in the past with any motherboards have been attributable to me, except for one old board that had an IDE controller that caused crashing even in linux, but that wasn't a gigabyte (bit off topic, sorry).
Glad to hear it might be sorted, please don't forget to report back if you get no further issues within say 7 days, people like to know if the "maybe" solutions work or not before they try things.
