YES!.... Jackpot. 
i tryed swappin out the Graphics card for en older model (GTs 8800) 
Now i got into the bios, and in the "Advanced" menu, is there another option for storage Configuration and in there is there and option for Onboard SATA3 operation mode, which have 3 options: IDE mode, AHCI mode or Disabled mode. So now it's set to disabled. 

Wow that was it. now i know that is was my graphics card i only have buy a new one. This old 8800 has stars and stripes down right side of the screen. 

So now to the moment of truth: will it boot into Windows ? ...

Even manual is useless. I really can't think of anything more in your case. Cry

Maybe try and get a 2nd hand mobo for your CPU just to finish the projects?

That is also what i'm thinkin. but i can't reach the bios to see if it is a possibility at all. It's really frustrating that the bios cant be accessed before the asmedia chip, like you normally would be able too with other Mobo's.
Idk why my mobo is designed to display bios screen a second time, and designed to enter the bios at the second time and not at the first time it screens.

IDK if this option is present with your BIOS, but sometimes you can disable different SATA controllers entirely.

If you can disable the ASMedia controller entirely, maybe you'll be able to POST. Granted, this will stop you from using your HDDs with the respective SATA channels, but you could get come PCI(e) or USB-to-SATA controllers and finish your job.
