Does this card support booting from the attached devices.

I purchased mine on Nov 19, 2012. Assuming this is still the same model, I can say with confidence that it does. I boot to an SSD using this card.

It just acts as a usb port from the motherboard. So yes. If you can boot from a usb port that is on the back of the computer then you can use the dashboard port to boot from. You will need available ports on you motherboard to make the connection, or use a usb expansion board.

I installed this card in my Dell Desktop and it works very good. I hooked up a sata drive from my old laptop.. however I don't think it will boot from it. In the setup it does not show that drive as a bootable device (where you set the boot order). It only has the two on-board sata drives that I have installed. Hope this helps. It is a good deal at the price and allowed me to add a sata storage drive.

Cards are hardware, an extension of the system board. Although the system I installed this card in did not need to boot to the (optical) drive I used it for, I would be surprised to learn that it could not be used to do so.

Im not really sure if it does or not. But on the MB description that what it all supported.sorry I couldn't give you a better answer.

Yes, mine does and I have Sirrus running in mine. We have gotten very use to it and other than a little slower the OEM boot-up, it works well and we are pleased.

Sure it is supported by simply shift your BIOS select switch to position 3 before you turn on.

Yes, the card requires a 6-pin power connector from the power supply. The system won't boot without it being connected. The video card ships with a short cable that is a 4-pin to 6-pin power adapter, in case your power supply doesn't have a dedicated 6-pin power line.

No it is not a duel boot card. You have to shut the Nook down to instal or remove the card to switch between AndriodForNook and the Nook's installed operating system. If you accept that it works great.

If want to power devices, yes. You need to connect power to the card. I bought a SATA power to 4 pin adapter and a y splitter.

Yes. It just needs power to run the fans. There's no data being exchanged between the card and your system.

I have not tried yet. it seems to be tricky with the UEFI boot. I went the virtual machne way instead. It runs great with the amount of power this beast has. Best regards Clement

Yes. The software you have now wont matter because your booting of the card not the actual nook firmware.

if there is a pci-e slot and it fits then i don't see why not. depending on how your system was set on default you may have to enable a bios setting so your system can run this card as it is considered a certain kind of new software. i think its calle trinity or something but i dont remember. either way your computer wont be able to boot up unless this setting is enabled in the bios.

Sorry, But no. You will need something like a highpoint PCIe card that may support that.

It will not work during the boot process or during login. Aside from that, it should work

It wasn't for me. I have a regular BIOS system (not the UEFI) so I was not able to use any drives connected to it to boot from. But it does work well for secondary drives.
