Connect via USB 2.0 to set up the system. It doesn’t recognize your chipset for USB 3.0 until drivers are applied. That was around November 2006... I had my Core 2 Extreme in August 2006, but it’s no longer working. Ah, USB 2.0 is the upgraded version—consider using USB 1.0. You might need to install Windows 7 on a fat32 formatted USB drive.

You likely don’t have USB 3.0 ports, just 2.0 or older. For creating a FAT32 formatted USB with installation, avoid using Rufus which defaults to NTFS when you set up an MBR. Try using tools like dd or a dedicated USB formatter to ensure proper formatting.

For the Windows 10 ISO, I’m using one made with the media creation tool. For the Windows 7 ISO, I’m using a version from a disc I owned earlier.

Have you attempted a 32-bit setup? Many devices faced issues with 64-bit versions at that time. Although it should function properly, it may not be upgradable. I believe your system has the latest BIOS installed. Have you considered reverting the BIOS settings or determining when the problem began?

I haven’t installed anything 32-bit except on XP, maybe it’s worth giving it a shot. Also, I wasn’t able to update my BIOS for some reason—just got an error when I used a FAT32 formatted USB drive with the right file for the motherboard.

The file seemed within limits, but I’ll review it again tomorrow. For the revision, I’m still uncertain about the exact outcome.

Examine the board and search for an update and a code. I didn’t locate your board on the official site.

I realized recently that the name was missing an 'L', which likely led to this confusion.
