    ASUS P7P55D-E cannot boot from USB stick

    Well looks like I've screwed things... Tried the veru few options available on that list, then choosed to load default settings, and now not only I still can't boot from Windows USB, but macOS is unable to complete boot-up process. After long progress bar with the apple logo, I end up on a...

    ASUS P7P55D-E cannot boot from USB stick

    Thanks for clarifying, yes that seemed to me like different things. Should I then try the ''load setup defaults'' option ? What's the risk ?

    ASUS P7P55D-E cannot boot from USB stick

    The first step you outline is not clear to me. I read some places say this is done by going after 1-2 buttons physically on the MB. Others say to remove CMOS battery for 30 seconds. However, I can see a RESET BIOS option if I do F1 when booting.

    ASUS P7P55D-E cannot boot from USB stick

    I build this hackintosh in El Capitan (Clover) about 3 years ago, still works fine, but now needs to build this machine into Windows and will build hackintosh on a newer machine. Problem is I cannot boot from the Windows 10 (legitimate) USB stick. I would assume I was able to boot from USB...

    Asus P7P55D-E - El Capitan - install a PCIe Thunderbolt card?

    I have a working system, Asus P7P55D-E (on macOS 10.11.6). System is in transit, I am thinking to replace a Firewire audio interface by a UA Apollo which works on Thunderbolt 3 (and can be backward compatible with adapter to Thunderbolt 2 or 1 on Macs) My processor on the board is Quad-Core i7...

    [SUCCESS] ASUS P7P55D-E-Pro

    I'm also having that P7P55D-E board - extremely surprised to learn it can be upgraded to Xeon CPU !! :) - I'm on Quad Core i7 2.94 GHz. I went last year (thanks to many help on this site) from Mountain Lion to El Capitan - works like a charm. Also doing audio work (external RME on Firewire)...

    WHERE IS ''SYSTEM'' ?: MIDI interface (MOTU) seen, but no driver seem to be installed

    Thanks MacMan. Indeed, it works without the spaces, so won't fix it as it's not broken.

    WHERE IS ''SYSTEM'' ?: MIDI interface (MOTU) seen, but no driver seem to be installed

    MacMan, I am wondering : file received by MOTU has spaces in the name between words... I notice that all kexts names have no spaces in there. Should I eliminate spaces in the file name: ''MOTU MIDI Driver .kext'' ?

    WHERE IS ''SYSTEM'' ?: MIDI interface (MOTU) seen, but no driver seem to be installed

    Will try this on the Hackintosh later and report back... But on MBP, OSX 10.12.6, Go to folder and type in ''System'' lead me to ''The folder can'y be found''... However, I get it in my face when double clicking the Mac SSD !... And I never used the terminal to have it ''nohidden''. Weird... ?
