I'm trying to install Windows on my Dell XPS M1730 laptop, but I'm getting a message requesting to change the BIOS setting from Legacy to UEFI. This laptop runs on the Dell A11 BIOS version, and I've looked everywhere online for a solution but haven't had any luck. Can anyone help me figure this out?

Do you know the exact specs of your laptop? If it's got a Core 2 Duo and only 4GB of RAM, that confirms it's quite an old model. Sadly, laptops from that era generally can't switch to UEFI.
It sounds like you're dealing with a vintage model there! The XPS M1730 is around 2007, and unfortunately, it doesn't support UEFI since it's an older BIOS. You might be stuck in Legacy mode for any installations.
Yeah, it has a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo and 4GB RAM. Guess I’ll have to stick with Legacy then.
