Is this the version that has a little switch for legacy/uefi selection?

Actually yes, the 2GD5/OC does have a legacy/uefi switch. I own this card and I had to set it to '2' so it would work on my older motherboard.

Nope. Same as the large one with the two fans. Mainly thats the difference the two fans but same clock speed in the gpu

I do not know. I have not tried it. On the surface, it seems like an Ideal choice. Pleas read the response from a reviewer and check with the Mobo Manufacturer. Awsome board for a HTPC By N. R. on June 7, 2013 Verified Purchase This board is special, which is quite small, faster than an Atom board, have lower power usage than regular board + CPU, quiet even with the cpu fan, fits into 1u case with ease. If you find a good brand solid wattage above 120 watt small size. I have a slim size case with 140Watt and that did work fine. For a dual core, dual channel memory, cheap price I cannot complain. Pay attention some have issues with lesser wattage or not accurate PSU wattage given. The negative part is for errors on Linux installation. I want to use it for video, audio and Electronics books storage library mainly for low power consumption which is between 20-25 watt constant, but didn't expect I will have issue with Linux ACPI drivers which this one does. I switched to windows home server which works but did prefer the Linux as for it's great scalability. Hopefully you will have better luck than me.

Yes, I have done this. You'll want to press the key combination to enter setup before the computer boots into Windows and switch from UEFI to BIOS. Once you do that you can put in your Windows 7 disc, boot to CD, and install the OS. Dell has Windows 7 drivers available for this model.

Sorry; I would suspect that if it is possible after initial configuration, it would be considered proprietary. Contact Kingston.

I have not checked since I have no requirement to modify the BIOS. You can probably have more luck going through thinkpad user groups.

No it doesn't. I am using 2 PNY (for hashing) on G41M-P33 COMBO motherboard, which does not have UEFI BIOS.

MANUFACTURER RESPONSE: Thanks for your asking! This will likely be a "no" however it might be possible in some scenarios. For this to be possible, the BIOS/UEFI on the motherboard has to natively support the chip used in the USB network adapter- so this answer will always depend on the motherboard, and more specifically the UEFI/BIOS that motherboard runs. The vast majority of "legacy" systems will NOT have the ability to PXE boot a USB attached adapter. On more modern systems, this functionality will vary from model to model and is NOT something we can answer with certainty, as it is effectively a question of whether the motherboard's software has support for the chip used in the adapter- the ASIX AX88179. This is much less likely to work on this product than our USB 2.0 devices, since those are based on chips that have been around longer, thus giving motherboard OEMs time to integrate support for these USB devices into BIOS/UEFI. Our most widely compatible adapter, capable of 10/100 operation rather than gigabit speeds, is the AX88772 based http://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Ethernet-Network-Adapter-AX88772/dp/B00484IEJS For Gigabit connection speeds (although potentially lower performance than the USB3-E1000), check for support for the ASIX 88178 chip used in our, consider the http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003VSTDFG While it is theoretically possible to design a deployment environment that would work this way, unless you need to PXE boot regularly or are trying to integrate ultra books with SCCM or some other enterprise management system, I'd anticipate that it would be easier to use USB media to deploy from since support for the USB mass storage class of devices is fairly ubiquitous across modern motherboards- thus avoiding the need to check for compatibility with each motherboard BIOS/UEFI. Hope this helps! Sorry for the slow reply- feel free to follow up with us by emailing support@plugable.com or visiting at support.plugable.com Best wishes- Jeff Everett Plugable Technologies

Not that I knjjow of. I also be this model is outdated and no longer available from dell.

The last one I bought (Dec 2013) had Richland support. You don't have to worry about the BIOS.

I have not tried yet. it seems to be tricky with the UEFI boot. I went the virtual machne way instead. It runs great with the amount of power this beast has. Best regards Clement

Not out of the box, but it can with updated BIOS You can find the latest BIOS version on Asus website

I've read on Newegg.com that the AMD chip UEFI (new BIOS) makes it impossible to run Win7 on this box. I want this in a Win 7 flavor, but I'm not sure after reading that that it will run on even an Intel Chip.

There are, but I found it to unreliable for my needs. Switch it to client access mode via the configuration file, and you will probably be much happier. The pass through mode has slow boot times, slow connects, and timeouts.

Yes. You have to go int0 the BIOS and turn on legacy boot (sorry I forget the exact setting but a google search will get you pointed in the right direction). I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit installed on mine and it works flawlessly.

I forgot, u can see the hardware version by checking inside settings. There's a small upgrade for it too. Visit tplink web page for it.

Yes to both your questions. You have to download the TVAT tools that only installs via Windows and will enable you to restart AND THEN YOU CAN START ACCEESSING CMOS AND disable the secureboot requirement. Tedious more so than other UEFI systems.

There is no reason why not, I have booted from many devices. The only issue is that the new boot must be UEFI capable and needs to have power management drivers to keep from overheating the ventless design. I do not know of any Android distros like that.
