Hi!
I was reinstalling Windows 10 64-bit on my Asus GL552VW laptop.
Originally, it came with a HDD with a EFI partition on it. I wiped the HDD making it a secondary drive, and bought a M2 drive.
I flashed a USB stick using Media Creation Tool, and reinstalled in on the M2 drive. In order to even boot the installation, I had to:
It takes over 40 seconds to boot, while on a normal PC without the EFI partition it literally takes 4 seconds to boot Win10 from an NVME drive using a"standard", EFI-less bootloader.
The problem is, I cannot disable CSM, and/or enable the rest of the options, because the laptop won't boot to OS. It simply drops to BIOS.
Shall I try to reset the BIOS? Will it change anything?
EDIT: I think i made the thread in a wrong section, can someone please move it?

- disable Secure Boot
- disable Fast Boot
- Enable CSM (compatibility support module)
- enable legacy boot mode
