[QUOTE="arkhi, post: 32396, member: 570"] I did some research on this. The fact that they keep calling their firmware EFI (without the U) bothers me since there is clearly a difference between UEFI and EFI. After some research, I'm lead to believe that it's not possible to boot Windows through UEFI on a Mac because Mac's don't have the UEFI 2.0 standard and that Boot Camp assumes that any other OS aside from OSX should be booted via MBR/BIOS. Interesting read btw: [url]https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2767378?start=0&tstart=0[/url] [/QUOTE]
