Greg Stovall, as per http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?cat=Download&os=BIOS&Model=Z68%20Pro3 an update is available for your BIOS (2.10). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.10 ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 946899 8086:2a02 [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed...

I have done the fresh install several times, with the same behavior each time. Unity was rock solid on 11.10, but crashes pretty easily with 12.04. i915 driver crashes a lot, flickering screen. When unity dies, everything but the open windows disappears. The foreground window can continue to be used, but no other window is selectable. I'll have to reload 11.10 pretty soon; I can't keep my primary personal machine in this state.
