I am not sure what you are referring to when you say function key menu options....
While POST is in process, press F12 key. You want to see a screen much like this: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/150/gigabyte-F12menu.jpg Notice the highlight on the first option, which does not include the text UEFI. That's my Leap 15.0 in the Plextor DVD drive ready to proceed to boot in Legacy MBR mode. The BIOS is
wrapped in some fancy schmancy Gigabyte GUI that is all pizzazed up to look pretty and sexy for gamers.
It is a mess...
Any setting I found that mentions UEFI I turned off but it is not a simple setting in one location.
Agreed. Start by finding this screen. http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/150/gigabyte-BIOSstorageOption.jpg Note on the right side I had to scroll down to find it "Storage Boot Option Control". You can see the highlight on UEFI, but you need it on Legacy.
I am given the choice between "No not launch", UEFI, and Legacy for "Storage Boot Option Control" and "Other PCI devices" both of which are set to Legacy.
Choose Legacy there. Mine has the same three options. I didn't mess with Other PCI devices.
The Gigabyte logo splash screen, shown right after power up, shows only briefly and does show a couple of function key menu options and it also tells the user to use the Del key to access the BIOS settings.
That's when you need your finger on the F12 key. When it goes right, you get this (MBR/Legacy): http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/150/150-BIOSmenu.jpg If you can't get it following my instructions, look for a BIOS upgrade from Gigabyte. Also, how did exactly you burn the iso to DVD? I know it's possible to do wrong with Windows burning apps, but not the details. Not this (UEFI): http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/150/150-UEFImenu.jpg -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
