Yep, I know that, but I've ask for help many times, and nobody was  
able to help me. May be this problem is too complex, or may be next

I would call a mainstream motherboard).

But well, I'm planning a migration to 8.x during next year, for both  
local and remote servers (and new hardware for the remote server).
