Hi Rogério,

1) Your M5X0JE is horribly broken, but I couldn't find any similar
reports on the web, so I wonder if there's a BIOS setting or something
that's unique to your system.  Can you (a) capture the current BIOS
settings (photos of SETUP screens or something) and (b) reset to
factory defaults and see if anything changes?  If things work better
with the defaults, knowing what the difference is might help us fix
Linux.

2) Can you use a Windows tool like AIDA64 (free trial version at
http://www.aida64.com/downloads) to collect information about how
Windows configures the box?  Last time I used it, there was a way to
save a full configuration report.  Maybe there's a clue in the
differences between Windows and Linux.
