Title: UEFI-enabled card on a legacy socket 775 motherboard?
Post by: kopija on April 10, 2017, 09:01:24 AM
Greetings,
I plan to stick one Zotac 1060 mini in socket 775 motherboard, but I stumbled on a user review on Newegg saying that his non-UEFI motherboard refuses to recognize the card.
I already have one MSI 1060 running nicely in another socket 775 motherboard, so I was wondering is this issue related to Zotac cards only?
Anybody has similar setup?
Thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting ZOTAC Technical Support.

None sir. The card DO NOT support Legacy BIOS, only UEFI.

Cheers,

Now I am really confused.
Maybe only that specific model does not support legacy BIOS?
