More good news for me; two more motherboards from my $80.00 haul a few weeks ago have tested okay - a P8P67-M Pro, and a P8Z68-V. I was initially worried about the P8Z68-V, because it gave me four short beeps and wouldn't go any further, but it turned out that the BIOS was too old for an Ivy Bridge CPU. Luckily the computer I gave my cousin still has a Sandy Bridge, so I borrowed that. The P8Z68-V is going to be an upgrade for a computer I built for my cousin, so I wanted to use an M.2 drive. I followed the instruction here ( https://www.win-raid.com/t871f50-Guide-How-to … -UEFI-BIOS.html ) to add NVME support to the BIOS, flashed it, and it now supports the Ivy Bridge CPU and I'm just finishing up setting up Windows 10 on the drive.
