Well, as I have mentioned above I have all my drivers updated to the latest drivers all released after Oct 2013 making them Windows 8.1 x64 compatible except for one. That is the Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet driver. I compared all three sites (ASRock, Station Drivers, and Broadcom) and despite ASRock's page saying the driver on their page is a higher version number it is the same version that is listed on the other two sites. The driver is dated 7/26/2013.
I also fixed the disabled High Definition Audio Bus driver by disabling ULPS and then enabling it.
To make things a little easier in the future I want to start keeping good backups of my system. The problem is I have read that some backup programs are not compatible with GPT partitioned drives and SecureBoot. I found out that Macrium Reflect free can do the job. However, I have never used it before and don't know where to start since now I am using UEFI and SecureBoot. Anyone know how I can go about creating backups? Also, my hard drives in my PC are a 128GB Vertex 4, 60GB Solid 3, and a old SATAII 750GB Hitachi. Should I put my OS, Software, and Games on the two SSD's and use the 750GB drive for backups, or should I purchase a new SATAIII Hybrid drive or something and replace the small OCZ Solid 3 with it? Then use the OCZ Vertex 4 for my OS and software, SATAIII Hybrid drive for my games, and the old SATAII 750 Hitachi for backups?
