If your BIOS Mode is set to Legacy, you need to check if your OS Drive is formatted as MBR or GPT. If it is MBR, you will need to convert it to GPT before setting your BIOS Mode to UEFI. Please see this video for information on how to check your drive, and this video on converting your drive to GPT. Doing this yourself is at your own risk and could prevent your computer from booting if not done correctly. If in doubt, please contact a professional.

Changing your BIOS Mode to UEFI depends on your motherboard, please check your manufacturer website to find out how to do so.

If it still does not work after doing the previous steps, you might need to update your BIOS to the latest version. Please go to your motherboard manufacturer's website and check how to update the BIOS for your motherboard model.
