UEFI problems, T3620, I deleted a file.
I have just put windows on my T3620 and for some reason it kept saying it couldn't find the boot device (hard drive).
So I pressed F12 chose to re boot the hard drive in legacy.
After I had finished installing the drivers etc, I tried to sort out why it couldn't find the boot device (hard drive).
By mistake I deleted a UEFI file, and now UEFI radio button has gone from the bios set up.
Here's the question: How do I rectify the problem?
Thank you for your help.

No, didn't work.
It only boots in legacy mode. I have to F12 then choose the hard drive to boot.
Ok, the UEFI radio button has come back in the boot list option section, however I now have two windows boot manager tick boxes in the Boot Sequence section. No UEFI Tick box.
Further info: With the UEFI radio button is checked in the "Boot List Option" section, I click on the "Add Boot Option" button, I get the reply File system not found.
Click on the "View" button, I get three windows "Boot option name", "File system list" and "File Name". In File name is: \EFI\BOOT\Bootx64.EFI Could this file be missing, and from where?
Thank you fort your help.

Sorted.
The file that was deleted in the bios set up, was in Windows.
I changed the hard drive, reinstalled Win 7 no problems. Runs like a dream.
Phew, I won't be doin that again.

You may want to reset BIOS. Unplug power, remove coin-cell batt, holding power button for 15 sec., re-install batt (put in a fresh, new one if you want). Power on the machine, system may cycle through a few times. Use F12 to prevent Windows boot (error), select BIOS setup and make change accordingly to how you want your system to be.
