You can try removing the last digits, so only look in the key {4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
It should give you the NIC settings though.

Yes, I tried also with ErP enabled, no luck.
It should be disabled for WoL to work, as stated in the manual.

Guys, with BIOS F2B the WOL problem is solved. No more greyed out options and it's working like a charm. Thanks :)

Yes, I noiticed it too. (btw you mean bios F8b).
However, the support from gigabyte did not help, their reaction was simply "Our hardware team can´t duplicate the issue."
But anyway, it works now.

OK good to know that you're issue is solved too. Gigabyte advised me to reinstall the os. I tried it 2 times on a fresh win 7 x64 and 1 time on win x x64 and still had the greyed out options. I have updated my ga-f2a88xm-d3h to latest BIOS version F6b. Cheers
