If that does not work and machine boots in UEFI mode you may want to adjust/select the proper EFI-BOOT partition to boot from. Usually this is the FAT32 partition with EFI boot loader. If that does not work you may simply re-install windoze from iso installer, serial number is now installed in BIOS/TPM, so you will have all OS working in SATA mode :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info >
