Hardware • Shim Lock Protocol Error with Docking Station

@Aki you have hit the nail on the head - thank you!

For anyone who wants to reference this item in the future, I'll be explicit:

• Enter the BIOS

• Click "Advanced" menu item

• Click "Port Options" menu item

• Click "Restrict USB Devices" menu item

• Select "Allow all but storage devices and hubs"

This setting only affects the initial boot environment from what I can tell, so when the kernel takes over, USB storage devices work fine. I'll save my rant about poor BIOS documentation for another time...

Thank you
