I've just put together my first build:

MB: GA-X77X-UP5 TH
Core: Intel i7-3770K
SSD: SanDisk 240G
​

After getting OS 10.8.2 up and running (!), and using MultiBeast (I checked "...DSDT-Free Installation"), things are looking pretty good, except:

When I ask for a shut-down, I get a restart.

I installed the Wi-Fi card that came with MB, a Gigabyte GC-WB300D, but I don't think I have it turned on – not picking up any networks. I have an AirPort Wi-Fi station that works fine with my iMac.

I had a working ethernet connection at one point, but now have lost it and haven't figured out why.
​

I'd GREATLY appreciate some help. There's lots about what I'm doing that feels like groping in the dark.

Hey man! Its good to see that your os is up and running, I would kill for that. Right now I'm stuck with cpu halted

So for your shutdown/restart question:
Try Wake On LAN = "Disabled" in the BIOS settings.

Hope that help

best,
Kenny

Thanks, Kenny. Shut down now works fine. Now trying to get Ethernet working.
