Any model that will support it, essentially. Which isn’t too many. We didn’t go back out in the field and retrofit existing installs. Just machines going through image deployment from that point forward.

Did you pull the band-aid off and move to it on all existing models in the environment, or just on those that were released in the last year?

It is a little quirky, you have to figure out correct settings for each model. I made a list if anyone would like to see it. Mark Kent (MCP) Sr. Desktop Systems Engineer Computing & Technology Services - SUNY Buffalo State From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Underwood, Bob Sent: Thursday, March 5, 2015 1:36 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] UEFI/GPT on Windows 7 Hey folks – Just an informal survey… what is your approach for systems running in UEFI mode in your environments? (Do you allow your process to deploy in whatever mode the machine is in? Do you force a particular mode?) And related to that, what about GPT formatted system disks? With Windows 8, we standardized on UEFI/GPT for all deployments, but have stuck to Legacy BIOS for Windows 7 deployments. To ease the (eventual) transition to Windows 10, we’re considering making the switch to UEFI for Windows 7 on Broadwell going forward. Just wanted to get a sense for what others are doing and what (if any) problems you’ve encountered with things like drivers and other standard processes. Thanks!
