Hi
"First of all, there is no UEFI bios. It's EUFI firmware and BIOS firmware."
Someone should tell my computer!
Every time I boot it, it displays a message saying, "Press Delete to enter the UEFI Bios." LOL
Well I suppose that when the trial version of Windows 9 comes online someone will do a step by step post about how to set it up to dual boot.
This used to be a snap, I booted 7 with XP and 7 with 8 no problems at all, just told it what drive to put it on and installed it. Everything was automatic boot menu appeared and that was it.
Progress!

Just the OEM manufacturers wording.
My wording in most posts is UEFI/BIOS frimware.
I had to disable Secure Boot to install a video card. I don't have any warning about Secure Boot being disabled and Windows still say's that it's activated.
The computer came with Windows 8 Core and I updated to 8.1 update. I don't know why some get the warning and some don't. This is the computer I have. http://www.microcenter.com/product/4...er_Refurbished

One scenario I know that the warning will come out is when you say migrated the OS into an SSD while secure boot is disabled and CSM is enabled. An MBR partition will be created that you can use to boot up instead of the Windows Boot Manager of the original installation. The OS will boot up but it will give you a warning about the OS being deactivated because of the "improper" Secure Boot settings. Not sure if this really makes sense at all but that is just one of the scenarios I've observed.
