After replacement of the system board in my HP Prodesk 600 G1 SFF, the system no longer boots from the original GPT SSD. I get an error message, "GPT Formatted Disk, legacy boot not supported".

The bios version of the new system board is v02.77 date is 04/17/2019.

The PC booted fine from the GPT SSD  before the system board was replaced.

Could it be that I need to revert to an earlier bios version to allow boot from a GPT formatted drive?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

You need to enable AHCI and select UEFI boot if indeed, you have a GPT drive.  Don't let Microsoft try to sell you a 2nd copy of windows.  You should be able to activate you old copy.
