Default Sandy Bridge Motherboards

Has anyone had any success using gparted, HDDerase, or boot from USB devices onthis platform?

Running a P8P67 Deluxe and ended up installing to HDDs instead of SSDs since I could not secure erase my sandforce drives. (Plus I needed room for review software *sigh)

USB CDROM would not work (possible defective).

Mulitboost USB would not work with winFLP or XP SP3. FLP crashes with a 0x7B stop error (storage driver) and XP stops with a f60?.

Memtest on USB boots and hangs with garbage on screen.

Gparted crashes and HDDerase hangs after going through the options.

Trying to isolate if this a problem with my methods, the sandy bridge platform or the UEFI bios.
