HI pbm5362,
I'm a bit lost as to how their advisement would change you current situation; however, I must admit I haven't read every post in this thread. So, if anyone else can confirm that they understand HPs suggestion and thinks it will work, I'd certainly like to hear why because, there has been no mention of anything relative to changing any BIOS setting to Legacy during this entire process, so it just sounds up like you will end back up in the same place again. What am I missing here? Anyone?
