Hello,
I tried installing FreeBSD 10.3 and Archinux on my system with Z77 Pro3, with UEFI boot. But both failed and gives me an error message "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device". I have turned off secure boot, also tried flashing but it says I have the latest version. I installed with usb drive from which it boots properly but once installation is done it can't find OS loader in hard disk, my hard disk is on top in boot priority list. Here https://wiki.freebsd.org/UEFI%20" rel="nofollow - https://wiki.freebsd.org/UEFI it says that UEFI firmware looks for OS loader in /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI, is it same for this motherboard? My BIOS is working fine, please help me.

I have same problem with x99 WS-E
Reboot and Select proper Boot device
or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key.
I can F11 into UEFI list of drives and none of them will startup the system, but the Windows startup manager is listed and when I select it, it starts win 7 x64.
I have contacted AsRock a couple of times all the tell me to do, is the things that I have done in the first 30 minutes. This is getting old fast!
