Hello. Csm indicates that disabling it will switch to full UEFI mode, but when you turned it off you couldn't boot. Full UEFI is required for the system to start properly.

Your OS drive probably relies on an MBR partition table, an older format. CSM needs to be enabled for it to boot properly. Disabling CSM with an MBR table will worsen your issue. Begin by verifying this, then proceed with the conversion steps.

CSM supports old boot options, allowing installation of OS for non-UFI systems. When CSM is off, you cannot run an OS install that isn't UEFI-based. Restore CSM or reinstall Windows if needed.

The installation should run in legacy mode, which means you cannot start using UEFI. You must reinstall Windows with UEFI and ensure the disk is set to GPT mode.

Windows includes a native MBR to GPT transformation utility in the command prompt. Alternatively, performing a UEFI conversion with a partition editor/cloner might be viable if data preservation isn't critical.

It was never my thing, but it's definitely achievable.

Your boot is already in UEFI mode, so you don’t need to change the MBR format. Keeping the game partition formatted as GPT will work fine for full UEFI support.
