Hi all,

I need to disable Fast Boot.
For this, I followed these steps at TenForums.com
All that went ok.
But once booting, it loaded what seems to me is BIOS. Also, in the Boot Options tab didn't show anything related to Fast Boot. So, I don't think this is the UEFI interface, is it?
I do have an EFI partition. And msinfo32 shows that the BIOS mode is UEFI.
Then, how to get it to boot into UEFI?

Brink from TenForums.com says: "it appears that your Acer Predator G3-710 has a BIOS type UI for its UEFI firmware settings."
But what does that mean? Does that mean that I should be able to find Fast Boot this way?

Thanks a million in advance guys :)

Although you can boot using UEFI for windows not all firware will give you a nice GUI to navigate around. So what appears to be a plain old BIOS menu is in fact your UEFI firmware anyway.
