Yes, but it's better then I face to 80% boot fail.

My BIOS was downloaded from:

UEFI Driver and Application Tool Resources - Intel
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/unified-extensible-firmware-interface/uefi-driver-and-application-tool-resources.html

Intel DQ57TM is still the official development board for UEFI, and B.11
is the newest BIOS version. I need update to B.11 for test secure boot
stuff:

SDV.TM.B11: Intel® DQ57TM UEFI 2.3.1 Development Kit BIOS Release (July 2012)   <=== newest version
SDV.TM.B10: Intel® DQ57TM UEFI 2.3.1 Development Kit BIOS Release (May 2012)

In BIOS menu and dmidecode show up the same version string:

Handle 0x0004, DMI type 0, 24 bytes
BIOS Information
        Vendor: Intel Corp.
        Version: Build SDV.TM.B11 Release (CSM Available)

But, as your remind, this issue related to BIOS, I didn't see this problem before update to B.11.


Thanks a lot!
