PLEASE HELP!
Hi guys
Have just built my new rig based on Z77X-UD5H (see sig below for parts) and have left the GTX680 out for now till machine booted with O/S installed
All items brand new
I have the brand new 128GB SSD fitted and when connected to SATA3 port and power connected I cannot get into EFI/BIOS
Once I disconnect the SSD I can get into EFI/BIOS
Motherboard LED displays either AE or A9
Can anyone help?
Want to get OS installed onto brand new SSD but once it is connected I cannot get into EFI/BIOS
BIOS version installed is F4 (as MOBO came)
Please help
Lew

I have the same mb / ssd, when my Logitech Momo steering wheel was attached to the usb port I was
not able to enter the bios.
my ssd is connect to sata port o - WHITE Sata Connector ! intel sata 600 works perfectly.
Would suggest the folllowing.:
1) for the time being only install one memory stick.
2) disconnect all usb components except your keyboard and mouse. (certain usb components seem to cause a freeze
in w7 and or do not allow you to enter the Bios screens)
if this works, you could install the 2nd stick, do a further test and than all 4
on this link you can find some helpfull information.:

I have pretty much the same deal same board with I7 Sandy. 32 gig memory. I have a SSD (sandisk) as well. I loaded windows 7 (Pro 64 bit), I was succesful once getting into the bios when the screen came up, it would flash and then go to the OS. I was able to hit F12 quick enough while the bios screen was still up. But I'm thinking that it should stay until I exit the bios since I held down the delete key per the instructions, but no. I'm wondering if I am able to get back into the bios and flash it if that would help (also have version f4). It's hard to hit a moving target.

*BUMP*
I am also having this issue but only since they day before yesterday, before this point i could enter the bios fine (system is only 2 weeks old all brand new bits and has been running flawlessly without a single crash) i believe i am on the F8 version of the bios and i am using an OCZ agility 3 SSD in the white SATA port as described
hopefully this will be fixed in an update to the bios but so far i have not seen anywhere that they are currently working on this issue :(

your BIOS version is quite old. you may flash to F8 BIOS to try.
