Just wondering if anyone has had any success (going backward) and changing a built server to use legacy BIOS?

From what I've been able to dig up online, the general view is it's not that simple. Either a full wipe, restore from backup is needed. Or replacing the OS disk with a new disk, copying the boot partition over and running a fix of the MBR.

At this stage it's probably less time consuming for the server to be replaced/rebuilt.

Thanks for the reply, sorry only just seeing it now.

In the end the server was rebuilt with legacy BIOS used.
