    Try f2 while turning on the computer.  
    It will go to bios..
    Go to boot option on the top  ( use arrow keys )
    On the boot mode - you will see uefi 
    secure boot enabled
    Press enter on uefi - change it to legacy 
    save the changes.. 

    If you are not able to change the uefi to legacy by pressing enter.. 

    Try to do bios defaults...While turning on the computer, tap f2. It will go to bios. Press f9 once. It will show load bios defaults with a yes or no popup. Press enter. Popup screen will disappear.  Press f10 once. It will show save changes popup with yes or no. Press enter. Computer will restart and it will load into windows.   

    Go to bios again - go to security - change the secure boot to disabled 
    Now go to boot option - Try to change the boot mode to legacy...  It should work...

    If it is still not working...

    Go to bios - go to security - set the supervisor password.  Save the changes
    Go to bios - go to boot - change the boot mode to legacy from uefi .   It should work..

    Hi @Ausni,

    Press F2 when prompted to enter BIOS menu. Navigate to Boot Maintenance Manager -> Advanced Boot Options -> Boot Mode. Select the desired mode: UEFI or Legacy.

    I dont think legacy is supported its over a decade deprecated, what are you trying to achive?

    If its a missing drive / linux booting its probs RST / VMD you need not legacy mode :) *(unless you are trying to boot xp)
