 Hmm...  It seems these platforms don't fully initialize VGA registers.  
 According to the product pages, this board has "Intel Fast Boot 
 Technology", which sounds like "we don't care about legacy VGA modes 
 any more" to me. ;-)
 
 I saw Intel's video presentation on YouTube and it showed a BIOS 
 option to disable "Fast Boot" from Boot menu.  Try to disable it if 
 you have something similar, especially "Video Optimization" or 
 something.
