I am applying for a position which requires my PC to be UEFI capable. However, I did a pc test and mine is BIOS (Legacy) and is dated for the year 2013. Is it possible to upgrade my BIOS to UEFI?

Hi:
The 6300 Pro has a UEFI BIOS.
The OS is probably installed in Legacy mode which is why the report you ran is indicating that.
You have to install Windows in EFI mode.
Here is a HP whitepaper which shows you how to identify your PC as having a UEFI BIOS.
See the illustration on page 5.

Please post the product number of the PC.
Use this guide to find that information...please do not post the serial number.
