I'm using the mobo from the guide: Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L rev. 2.

I reinstalled 10.6, using the same method and thumb drive, but now when I hit f12 to boot into the thumb drive, I get stuck at "Verifying DMI Data Pool".

I've changed every applicable setting in the CMOS setup utility, and tried resetting the BIOS.

Tomorrow, I'm going to try and reset the main BIOS using the BIOS download from Gigabyte.com.tw, and a thumb drive.

Any ideas until then?

Hi

I recently had a similar message and fixed it after i googled DMI data pool messages. I would suggest you try that. I am a newbie so do not want to put you wrong... but what worked for me was disconnecting the Hard drive and booting up with the usb stick then reconnecting the hard drive. This seemed to reset the defaults and it was business as usual. You might want to wait for an informed solution but if you don't get one... well it worked for me.

Cheers Bruce
