Preparing Thinkpad BIOS

For the moment eCS does not have UEFI support so you need to enable the UEFI legacy mode on the Thinkpad BIOS.

To do this you need to access the BIOS by making a complete shutdown of the machine. If you are using Windows 8 or 10 you need to press "Shift" key and select "Shutdown". After that the machine is complete shut down (Because it has some hybrid thing that does not complete shutdown normally).

More information at this Lenovo's article. [1]

After that you can turn on the machine and press "F1" after Windows boots. You will now access to the BIOS.

Once you are on the BIOS you need to do three thing.

1) Disable the "Boot Security".

2) After disabling the security you can finally select UEFI Legacy mode or both.

3) Check out how you are going to install eComStation on this "CD/DVD driveless machine" to check the "Boot order".
