Okay thanks do you know if there will be any drawbacks if i use this board with windows 8.1?

No drawbacks. It just won't have the "fast boot" feature.

ok, so can I do a win 7 install in UEFI mode in such a motherboard ? My motherboard is GA-H61M-S2PV http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4505#ov

Thanks.

Why I ask is because, in the motherboard product page you can clearly see that it is mentioned, it has DUAL UEFI BIOS.
