Any advise?

Hi cteneyck

I think your problem is - you not finished installation procedure (problem-bios reset)

Solution is:
3.) Use MultiBeast to install:
-ElliottForceLegacyRTC
-EvOreboot
and choose repair permissions.

I think registration is a simple procedure.

Hello, I am trying to install 10.7.2 on a EP43-S3L using iATKOS L2. everything seems to work fine, but booting takes forever (maybe 5 min!!) When I get to the login screen, I have to wait another 5-7 min before the keyboard starts working and I can click on my name.

Does anyone have any ideas? I am very new to all this, so please be gentle
