EDIT: I was able to resolve my issue by connecting another hard drive I had. This finally allowed to UEFI boot my DVD drive and after running a Startup Repair on my existing Windows installation the Windows Boot Manager (UEFI) appeared and I was able to boot Windows.
I just installed my B3 Revision P8P67 Deluxe and am now having a major issue.
With my B2 board there was a Windows Boot Manager (UEFI) displayed in my Boot options and that is what would be used to boot Windows.
After installing my B3 board this option isn't showing up in the BIOS and I cannot boot into Windows. When I try to boot directly off of the hard drive the screen just sits there at a blinking cursor.
I attempted to run a Startup Repair on my Windows 7 installation but that isn't possible since the RTM DVD can't repair a SP1 installation. I get a "This version of System Recovery Options is not compatible with this version of Windows you are trying to repair. Try using a recovery disc that is compatible with this version of Windows." error. Thanks Microsoft. I also pulled the battery on the motherboard and set the BIOS settings back to the defaults with no luck.
I am pulling my hair out and am desperately trying to avoid a complete Windows reinstall. Why did that option disappear and how do I get it back?
Any help would be appreciated at this point.
Update: I noticed I am getting an E9 error on the Q-Code, which according to the manual means "S3 Resume PPI not found"
