    [SOLVED] Difference between UEFI only and UEFI first

    Last time when I set it to UEFI first, the system showed "B2" post code and was stuck on the bios splash screen. Removing the graphics card and using the integrated to reset the setting fixed this before. Haven't tried to do it again ever since,
