Hi all, I've had this problem for quite some time now, but I didn't really think i needed to fix it since it hasn't been a major annoyance until now.
The problem is as follows:
Important Hardware:
Asus Maximux V Gene (z77 motherboard with 3570k porcessor)
Linksys wusb300n Wireless N adapter
The Issue:
Every time I boot, during the POST processor, it essentially freezes up showing me the asus logo for a good 45 seconds.
What I Know
What's happening is the motherboard is doing something with a USB device, as indicated by the POST Led on the motherboard.
When I take my adapter out, it boots quickly
Every single USB port with my adapter plugged in will cause this issue
I have tried most of the options in the UEFI relating to USB and quick boot, nothing has helped me so far.
I do not have the drivers for the adapter installed, but I don't think that's the issue.
I have updated my BIOS to the latest version, and have all the correct ASUS drivers as well, so I'm not really sure how I can fix this.
I hope someone who has experience with this issue is able to help me, since it's a pain in the ass to unplug the usb every time I boot. Thanks!
