This is indeed caused by wrong settings in the BIOS.

When your CMOS battery died, your BIOS settings reset themselves to default values.

One of those settings enables/disables the onboard USB controller, which, when enabled, uses IRQ10 - the same IRQ to which the d8b's MIDI card is configured to use from the factory.

This results in the d8b being able to send MIDI but being unable to receive it.

To resolve this issue, do the following:

1. Power down the mixer.

2. Power up the mixer and hit DEL when you see the BIOS screen to enter the BIOS (i.e., press DEL when you see the memory size and processor type on the screen).

3. Disable the onboard USB controller:

* If you have the older motherboard, disable the "Onboard USB Device" option under "INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS." Also disable "USB Keyboard Support" under "CHIPSET OPTIONS" (or equivalent category) and any other option related to USB.

* If you have the newer motherboard, disable the "Assign IRQ to USB" option under "INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS" and any other option related to USB.

4. Exit the BIOS and SAVE YOUR CHANGES.

Your d8b will now again be able to receive MIDI and your HUI mode will work properly.
