UEFI BIOS support is available if you install Windows in UEFI mode by booting the installation media from the EFI flash drive, not the legacy one.

 

There are YouTube videos for how to convert from Legacy to UEFI BIOS mode without having to reinstall Windows or losing data, but I highly recommend you back up any files you don't want to lose before trying the conversion process.

Yes, your notebook has a legacy mode disabled and secure boot enabled setting in the BIOS. 

 

That's the setting you have to change if the MBR to GPT conversion is successful.
