Original Question:

Can't boot desktop Broadwell, seems like USB related problem to me

CPU: i7-5775C, MoBo: H97M-PLUS, 16 Gb DDR3, WD Black NVMe SSD, iGPU Iris Pro 6200 + GeForce 1030 (disabled via -wegnoegpu). Display is connected to DVI port of iGPU.

Can't get past this screen. Tried tinkering with USB related settings in BIOS with no luck. I don't have "XHCI Hand-off" setting available, only "Intel xHCI Mode". Could this be a problem? I tried Auto and Disabled. EHCI Hand-off setting is available and set to Enabled.
