The Legacy BIOS OS Loader is dead, long live the UEFI Boot Loader

Neuigkeiten bei ICP Deutschland GmbH - Offizieller Partner von IEI

We're changing over! You benefit in three ways!


As of 01.10.2019 we will install Microsoft® WindowsTM 10 64bit as standard with the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Boot Loader. All Ready-to-Use Embedded PC, 19" Industrial PC, Panel PC and Board Bundles that we deliver with Windows 10 64bit will be switched to UEFI mode.

The UEFI OS Loader supports larger storage media than the Legacy OS Boot Loader. Benefit from WindowsTM 10 64bit, which can be installed on storage media larger than 2 terabytes. Also benefit from the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), which is supported in version 2.0. This allows you to secure systems with the higher SHA-256 crypto algorithm. And thirdly, you can benefit from the secure boot function. A function that prevents malware from manipulating the boot process.

Nothing changes for all other operating systems. These are installed by us with the Legacy Boot Loader. Please contact us if you have further questions about the conversion or wishes for settings of the BIOS and the operating system.
