Update: Sorry I took vacation - now I have to go out of country for work.
I tried cnaught's .aml file and again frooze.
I deleted that file and then tried adrianf's suggestion and still freezes.
When I return, I may try one more suggestion if there are any and then I want to get a tried and proven easy motherboard for this system. This was my 2nd build - 1st system is GA-Z77X-UP5 TH, i7-3770K - it was up and running in a few hours!
Questions?
1. What MB do you suggest as most foolproof at similar pricepoint?
2. Can I take chip out of MB and put in new one? (sorry - only 2nd build)
3. Does someone want to buy this MB or maybe someone wants to troubleshoot for good of all - I would want back at some point.
I am frustrated with this MB and ready to move on. I do appreciate everyone's help and suggestions. Maybe it is something simple but I think it is above my knowledge/patience level.

If You use VGA output when installing, there should be GraphicsEnabler=No, otherway it freezes, because it is the end of boot, and there is no native support for acceleration from HD4000 for VGA. Becuase no Mac has VGA output.
There are some ways to get it work, but it would not be easy http://www.tonymacx86.com/graphics/60010-official-hd-4000-support-17.html#post535057
With GraphicsEnabler=No it should work, but there will be some little flickering without gfx acceleration.

Ed, before you throw in the towel, did you try rolling BIOS/UEFI to F8? Make sure you do a reset to defaults after any version change.
Some folks reported this thread helps them: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-...iobluetoothhcicontroller-start-completed.html. It's a long post, so grab a cup of your favorite beverage.
On the SSDT.aml, did it resolve the "unknown CPU.." warning? I still believe this warning (which many folks here refer to as an "error") is a red-herring.
