There are two firmware updates in drivers available for this laptop regular BIOS firmare and UEFI Bios firmware leads me to think that both are installed and available on this computer, however i dont see an option anywhere in UEFI bios to switch to legacy one.

 

Is there any way to enable access to legacy BIOS?

As far as i read there's some automatic boot mode selection to allow running older operating systems with UEFI BIOS.

I did clean install WIndows 7 from CD without changing any settings in BIOS while UEFI BIOS enabled.

Anyway this is not my question.

 

What i am trying to do is to switch to Legacy BIOS however i see no option to do so.
