FREE-DOS on UEFI

Good evening community,


I was reading a lot on the internet (in that forum, google, etc.) and i found some threads about that problem. Everywhere it shows up that it doesnt work to install Free-Dos on UEFI-bootmode systems. But the curious:

I orderd 1 week ago the "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk1278ng Gaming-Notebook" (no legacy support, only UEFI) with Free-DOS. I tested it (of course i installed WIN10 via bootable USB) and everything works fine. But finannaly i decided to send it back for some personal reasons. So i deinstalled win10 and create again a bootable USB-Stick (Rufus/balena-etcher) with the Free-Dos version, but it doesnt show up in the Boot-menu after the restart of the system.

Now my question: How can i install back the Free-Dos version, like it was on the factory-delivery-settings? There must be an option, otherwise HP couldnt deliver the Laptop with Free-DOS on it.


Thx in forward and sry for my bad english.
 
Are you sure the system came with FreeDOS installed on it and not just a blank harddrive?
 
Yep im sure. In the advanced data despription they listed the OS as FREE-Dos and when i started the laptop the first few times (before win10 instalation) it says: Starting Free-Dos (or loading Free-Dos)....
