My company computer model for the HP folio9740m, with Windows 7 with the Repair tool, restore Windows standard image file, the following error occurred:

The system image restore failed.


Windows cannot restore a system image to a computer than have different firmware.

The system image was created to a computer using BIOS and this computer is using EFI.


Such as:

My solution was tuned in the BIOS: Bios-system configuration-boot options-boot mode, select Change to legacybelow.

There are also two options:1:uefi Hybrid (with CSM), 2:uefi Native (without CSM)


Note: Do not forget to save the BIOS after the change.


For information on the BIOS of UEFI, here is the official excerpt from Microsoft:


What is the benefit of first parsing the UEFI bios, and what is the difference between the so-called Win7 and WIN8 bios.
Win7 BIOS: Boot mode only supports legacy, can be installed WIN8, called Win7 BIOS refers to the boot mode stays in Win7 ERA.
WIN8 BIOS: Boot mode supports legacy, Uefi WITHCSM, UEFI, can be installed Win7, if installed 64-bit Win7 can choose UEFI with CSM mode, install 32-bit Win7 can only select legacy mode, called Win8 BIOS refers to the boot mode default is UEFI, but can be changed.

Here's a look at the difference between Uefi, UEFI with CSM, and legacy.
Legacy Start-up process: press power-system self-test-complete-start the system in the boot order-load System files-complete boot
UEFI Boot process: Press Power--load System file simultaneously system self test--complete boot
Uefi with CSM process with UEFI, is a mode that preserves UEFI features while compatible with Win7


The following is the official HP Business Notebook solution:


If you choose: Legacy This original WIN8 system will not boot up the following error
If you choose: Uefi Native (without CSM), connect the Win7 64-bit Pure system installation CD-ROM, boot continuously click F9 can enter the boot menu, select optical Disk Drive (UEFI) will be stuck in the interface can not continue to install.
So select the Uefi Hybrid (with CSM) to save the exit, connect the Win7 64-bit Pure system installation CD, boot continuously click F9 can enter the boot menu
If you choose optical Disk Drive, you will not be able to continue installing the error below during the installation process.
Select: Optical Disk Drive (UEFI) installation normally enters the installation process appears following prompt to select OK, then enter the normal installation interface
After the installation of the Win7 system, enter the following interface select Win7 or WIN8 can enter the operating system, to achieve the installation of Win7,win8 dual system
Note: Commercial notebook installation win7 64-bit system can be installed above the GPT partition above, Win7 32-bit system does not, need to modify the system image, add uefi boot file (related to modify Microsoft original system does not do support)
Installing Windows 7 does not support UEFI Native (without CSM) and must use Uefi Hybird (with CSM)
Installing Windows 8 can be either Uefi Native (without CSM) or Uefi Hybird (with CSM)


A follow-up will introduce some UEFI science knowledge.
