   I didn't achieve anything meaningful. I tried everything I could find on the internet.
I even took it to a repair shop - they couldn't fix it either.
I tried the last-resort method: reprogramming the BIOS chip with a hardware programmer - no success.

The solution:
I threw away a fully working PC and basically sold my kidney to buy a new PC.

Good luck to anyone still trying. If you find another solution, please share it.....

	Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I highly doubt you would get any help from any manufacturer with this issue. Manufacturers are obligated contractually to uphold a number of rules imposed by their partners (intel, AMD, Microsoft, Nvidia etc). This means that if one of their partners insists that they do not want hardware older than a certain generation to have a particular functionality then the manufacturer must comply or risk losing licencing for their products. Chipsets from Intel/AMD, certifications from Microsoft etc. This is why I run linux on my perfectly functional older systems and only have a single PC running windows. Even then, I run Windows 10 because I refuse to be locked to the whims of Microsoft. As soon as Linux catches up with regards to software that I use I will make the switch completely and never look at Microsoft again. My Z97 Extreme 3 paired with an i7 4790k and a Radeon RX 590 still runs perfectly and handles most games with ease (at least ones supported under linux). I did see someone looking into this on Redit some time back, they were Russian I believe, but there doesn't seem to be any progress for some years now.
