Hi,

I tried booting my laptop Alienware 17 2014 into legacy mode, now it just shows me black screen. Can't do anything after that.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

You should be able to revert the changes, set the BIOS into UEFI mode and see if the laptop boots as usual. Also, you posted this in the Windows Legacy section, this should be in the Laptop section. Which OS are you working off of?

Can you remain in BIOS without issue? If so, check and see what BIOS version you're on at the moment.
