"Enabling both NICs always enters BIOS setup"

Got this strange problem that if I enable both LAN ports my machine it always goes to "Entering Setup" every time I restart. Cold/Warm/Reset doesn't matter. If I only have one NIC enabled in the bios it will boot fine. Doesn't matter if its NIC 1 or 2.

The only way to boot with both NICs is to remove the G15 keyboard from the USB 2 port and then plug it back in after Windows starts.

Is this is beta bios bug?

I don't have the UbiKey plugged BTW (Its a multi-factor authentication device that interfaces with the PC as a HID device.)

Thanks.

L1.63 is the latest BETA version.

http://download.asrock.com/bios/1155/P67 Extreme6(L1.85).zip

Download that ZIP file from the beta zone and the file in it is actually P67EX61.63 even though the ZIP says L1.85. Go figure. The website says 2011-05-02 date stamp and the file in ZIP dates 2011-4-29 19:25.

I've tried all the download sites. Same deal. :-(

Maybe someone from ASROCK packaged the wrong version / or named the ZIP file wrong?

Any comments from ASROCK staff?

Perhaps it is a typo because 1.85 and the same changelog is for P67 Pro3.
