Windows 10: Windows 10 boots to UEFI

I have a new pc, I9 with a 2 TB M.2 SSD on a ASRock Z590 Taichi MB. Out of the box boot up went fine. I used AMMEI Partition Assistant to create some partitions for data. Since then, the pc boots in to the UEFI, not windows. The Boot Option Priorities, Boot Option #1 is Windows Boot Manager with the M.2 listed. If I click on exit, it gives the typical options of save, discard, Load UEFI defaults, and at the bottom, Boot Override with Windows Boot Manager M2.1 listed. If I click on the WBM, it goes to the windows desktop. Same thing every time. I have three partitions. Windows C:, D

Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

As the title says, I'm trying to install Windows on a RAID array in uefi on my Maximus V Formula. When using legacy ROM I can install just fine but I go into CSM and change settings to UEFI only, I can build the array in the UEFI Raid driver (IRST tab in "BIOS") but the array does not show up in the boot menu and when I try to install windows (boot from UEFI DVD drive), The drive does not show up in the Windows install. The next thing I tried was to enable UEFI and legacy oprom in CSM, boot from UEFI DVD drive and install to the RAID array (probably detected by legacy oprom) and it will install. After first reboot, Windows Boot manager will show up as an option in the BIOS boot menu so I set that as first boot device and reboot. I will get to the starting windows screen and then BSOD (too quick to get codes) The last thing I tried was Changing to legacy mode and installing windows to a different drive. once installed, I initialized the Raid array as GPT and rebooted, changed csm back to UEFI only but they RAID array still doesn't show in the boot device list so I repeated the earlier process hoping that It might work because I had initialized as GPT but it still BSODs on starting windows screen. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I think you were on track with your first try. Windows installer probably needs the RAID driver in order to detect it on install.

 

PowerColor Announces Readiness for Windows 8 UEFI Boot

it's only going to cut the bios (UEFI) boot time to null and that's it, windows still has to load and that usually takes a good 8-10 seconds. for me "fast" is nearly there, by the time my monitor wakes up its already loading windows i don't even see the UEFI screen anymore (thank god)
