In your request some time back now, you asked the poster above for a response. Poster never left one, so I will.
The option you gave regarding the different version, did not work for me. I also have the exact same model of mobo as original poster.
However, my install is on an SSD 960 Pro on Windows 7 Pro, but I got the exact same error message.
So while my system is finally able to connect, I'm providing, what should have been a no brainer (at least for me)
I shut down the pc completely
I unplugged the power supply cable
I also turned the power button off, that is on the power supply.
Waited in my case, 15 minutes for pc to drain power ( 10 minutes probably would have been fine)
Plugged the power supply cable back in.
Toggled the power switch to on, (the one on the actual power supply)
Then I turned on my pc, let it start up, and issue resolved!
p.s. I did find the info, just doing a Google search, many of the same issues occurred in mid to late 2016.
cannot answer why I hadn't done that sooner.
Had to think outside the box finally. :cool:
