Are you sure you are using IRST 10.8.0.1003? Regardless, you really should be using an IRST 11 version, regardless of what MSI has on their site for your board.
You can download it from Intel's download page, just search on one of their Z68 boards, and then choose Windows 7 for your OS, and look for IRST 11.2.0.1006. That's the latest official version from Intel. I use these drivers on non-Intel boards all the time, for years, and have never had a problem.
Yes I am sure I was using IRST 10.8.0.1003 but at your suggestion I have now installed 11.2.0.1006.
Unfortunately the problem still persists. With acceleration enabled, the system hangs when rebooting until I go into the RST boot-time configuration utility and disable the acceleration.
Is there a better place for me to ask this question (how to fix or troubleshoot) than this forum?
