Let's fix USB 3.0 on mainboards with series 7 chipsets

[Mieze]

Anybody out there with a series 7 chipsets equipped mainboard who got the Intel USB 3.0 working? If you are the lucky one please post a dump of IORegistry and your DSDT as it might be the key to get things working on other mainboards!

What exactly is not working with your USB3.0? On my mainboard I have USB2.0 ports working with USB2.0 and USB3.0. USB3.0 ports are only working with USB3.0. All USB devices are properly working after wake from sleep.

When I plug anything into the USB 3.0 ports the machine hangs and I have to press the reset button, also when I try to boot with any device plugged into the USB 3.0 ports. The USB 2.0 ports work as expected even after wakeup from sleep.

OK, I have attached my DSDT. What I did to fix sleep with USB was inserting this DSM methods into EHC1, EHC2 and XHC:

Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
{
    Store (Package (0x09)
        {
            "AAPL,current-available", 
            0x0834, 
            "AAPL,current-extra", 
            0x0898, 
            "AAPL,current-extra-in-sleep", 
            0x0640, 
            "AAPL,max-port-current-in-sleep", 
            0x0834, 
            Buffer (One)
            {
                 0x00
            }
        }, Local0)
    DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
    Return (Local0)
}

Maybe this helps you.
Sorry, I edited my post above. I meant that I have USB3.0 ports working with USB3.0, but not with USB2.0.

Hello dta,

Thanks for your response. I tried your patch with BIOS V1.0 without success. Also update the BIOS to latest Version, which is 1.2, but the result is the same.

How i can fix this errors?

I'm trying to apply the patch to USB3, not to use more GenericUSBXHCI.
