The board is a FM1 board.
This means you have a hardware that has no support whatsoever as we speak ,as even AMD put FM1 on a dead end track.
You just have to accept that you need either to use operating systems made properly and compatible all around like Windows XP ,Windows7 ,Ubuntu or OpenSuse ,so no Windows 8.Or buy a new APU+ mobo combo that has the proper UEFI version so the mighty Windows 8 works.
Your hardware does not fully support Windows 8 ,a big part of the problem are the morons that designed Windows 8 and a smaller part of the guilt is with Gigabyte that had a slow UEFI implementation.Gigabyte did not know that Microsoft makes Windows8 as it did and most of us also.
Their struggle to kill pirates made them do this strange secure boot stuff ,that will be bypassed easily by the pirates and will only cause trouble for us ,the customers.
There is nothing you can do as a user ,you are caught between 3 huge vendors ,mostly due the all mighty Microsoft and it s monopolistic attitude.
If you want to use Winodws 8 upgrade hardware .If you want to use the hardware you ve bought ,hardware that is perfectly fine ,even as it is with no UEFI ,use other OS-s.Gigabyte will not change Hybrid to UEFI ,as they need to sell boards so don t expect updates.
