My computer is the Asus CG5270. It has a 1TB SATA HDD, 8 gigs of Ram, and Intel core2 quad CPU Q8300 @ 2.5GHz, an Intel G45/43 Express chipset, and a P5QL-VM-EPU Mobo. No matter what I do I can't seem to even get tot he installation screen. I've tried Empire EFI, Distros, MyHack USB install, and a couple others. I think the problem may be with my mobo though. I've read that the p5q boads need a modded bios and I can't find one for my specific board. If someone could clarify if that is indeed my problem and how I could go about making/getting a custom bios made I would be very greatful.
