In the Boot tab in my BIOS, the menu for Xst Boot has CD, USB Floppy, USB
CD, etc, etc and UEFI at the bottom. Usually I have UEFI as first and only
boot. However, I've changed it to USB Floppy (I dunno why it thinks it's a
floppy) as first and only, no UEFI. I can't see any option to disable UEFI
more than that.
