Switching the boot mode could prevent
the system from booting if the operating system was
not installed in the same boot mode.
If the system operating system supports Unified
Extensible Firmware Interface, you can set this
option to
UEFI . Setting this field to BIOS allows
compatibility with non-UEFI operating systems.
NOTE:
Setting this field to UEFI disables the Boot
Sequence , Hard-Disk Drive Sequence , and USB Flash
Drive Emulation Type fields.

location of the operating system files for startup. If Boot
Mode is set to UEFI , you can access the UEFI boot
manager utility by rebooting the system and pressing
<F11> when prompted to do so.

boot from hard drives in the system during system
startup.

type for the device.
