   Hi.
Since Windows 10 x64 1803, you can't boot the OS or even the installer pendrive or DVD without disabling VT-D in the BIOS.
I found that x58 boards has a bad VT-D/IOMMU DMAR or RMRR table in the BIOS (with some exception, like the Asus Sabertooth x58 or a Supermicro board) and this issue hits also VM hypervisors or some Linux OS/distros.
So it seems that the fix is possible.
Who we shall contact on Asrock to get a new BIOS for every affected motherboards?

	If I remember correctly I already tried to use that form, but to no avail. What I asked for is a direct contact with someone that work or, at least, worked inside... I wonder if anybody of them have popped here... Thanks anyway.
