I suppose this is possible. When I first booted up the board, I was
unfamiliar with the delays. Apparently the Hero polls all the USB
devices on boot, so there is a long delay after the splash screen
(mouse, keyboard, 2 USB hard drives, printer, scanner, 2 Midi
Keyboards), so the screen goes black for a long time. The first time, I
waited a few seconds, screen was still black and hit reset. Possible it
could have happened then.

If you remember a few weeks ago, I installed an Asus Maximus VII Hero

into IDE mode to get the system to come up. Now a couple of weeks
later, I'm looking at moving to AHCI and found instructions on the
net. HOWEVER, when I went into the BIOS, the Hero is already in AHCI
mode. I hadn't changed it. I find this a bit weird. It's like the
BIOS and Windows worked together to put in AHCI mode.
Ever heard of this before?
No, once switched, I've never seen it switch back. Maybe the BIOS
reset on a failed boot?
