Okay, thank you so much for the help.
Appreciate it!

 

Don't change it. Stay with UEFI.

Oh...How strange, I thought every computer was just automatically in Legacy BIOS. Would you recommend changing or keeping UEFI?
Thank you.
 

You were already using UEFI mode. The boot to UEFI firmware just takes you to the UEFI screen if you want to change settings.

 

Legacy boot is only there to allow you to boot operating systems that don't support UEFI (Windows XP as an example). News computers starting with Windows 8 came with UEFI out of the box. New computers now don't even have the option of legacy boot/CSM.

 

Agreed with JohnC. Secure Boot as well as the resilience that you get with UEFI are well worth it.
