Nice... but the only output that shows non-EFI is the "NFORCE 780a" part. SMBIOS is on UEFI boards as well, interfaced through UEFI's "PI". Interstingly enough, the NFORCE 780i was EFI, hardcoded in a CMS chip to provide "Legacy BIOS".
I didn't state anything about SMBIOS being or not being on one BIOS or another...again... reading past whats on the page.
Well, as I stated, I am not rebooting for you. And I forget the ADD bunch don't read, and has to have everything put on their plate:
"
8Mb AMI BIOS- AMI Legal BIOS
- Supports "Plug and Play"
- ACPI 1.1 Compliance Wake Up Events
- Supports Jumperfree
- SMBIOS 2.3.1 Support
- CPU, DRAM, Chipset Core, PCIE Bridge Multi-adjustment"

www.asrock.com/mb/NVIDIA ··· X3-WiFi/It most assuredly is NOT UEFI. I don't have any thing but those nice
BASIC screens for a BIOS.
Versus a board I will never touch:
"
- 32Mb
AMI UEFI Legal BIOS with GUI support- Supports "Plug and Play"
- ACPI 1.1 Compliance Wake Up Events
- Supports jumperfree
- SMBIOS 2.3.1 Support
- CPU, VCCM, NB, SB Voltage Multi-adjustment
"

I sourced that board specifically to ensure that it was no polluted then.

I have a treat for all of you, I'm not sure why this hasn't been posted elsewhere....
President of UEFI is Tony Pierce. He is a Microsoft employee with the title "Technical Evangelist" in the "Windows Hardware Group". Enjoy!
And there you have it!
And you peolpe wonder why I told you "intel" is just the front shill for this!
Proof enough of what this really is and WHO REALLY is in the drivers seat.
