Gigabyte GA-H61N-USB3 PCIe turning OFF?

Gigabyte GA-H61N-USB3 PCIe turning OFF?
« on: March 23, 2013, 09:45:34 pm »
I'm not exactly sure what the issue is, but the motherboard is a variable that can be changed. I tried to standardize my build of 20 pcs on this board, but the issues are too much.

Build:
Gigabyte GA-H61N-USB3
Intel i3 2200
4gb RAM
AverTV PICe Card
32GB SSD
Windows 7

The install of Win7 is fresh.
The avermedia card works after install and then within a certain variable time after -- it stops working (it's a TV card)
It actually will say "no signal" even though the source (cable box) is still connected and can be plugged into a TV and works without issue

I've tried multiple cards - same result
I've tried multiple motherboards - same result

Power on board is 350W -- which is plenty for what I am doing.

I am building systems for clients and need to understand what I am missing here.

I looked in the power settings and can't see anything about PCI turning off after a certain time.
I used to use a Zotac board and never had an issue.

The drivers for the avermedia card are the latest.

And the bios I am using for the motherboard is F8

I'm really at a loss... and tried everything I can think of.

Suggestions?

Update: after reboot, the "tv" stayed on for 43 minutes before saying "no signal"
