Hi, Kirk,
I, too looked into this. Took me a while to find the same CPU.
Here's my system configuration:
Motherboard DB75EN AA# G39650-400
Processor: Core i5-3570K
Memory: 1x 8GB Geil 1333 Mhz
Intel 80GB SSD
Windows 8 Pro 64-bit
BIOS: EN0045, Legacy Boot disabled, UEFI Boot enabled
The OS installed and booted just fine. Did this happen on the first boot after install or after you loaded some drivers? You might try setting BIOS back to defaults, saving, then disable Legacy Boot and reinstall.
