"If I set the firmware to legacy only, but then Windows won't work." Yup. Either have it on legacy mode and install windows in that mode. Or use UEFI mode, boot UEFI mode and install windows that way. Either. No changing in between.– HennesCommented Jul 2, 2015 at 4:26

On your GPT disk you will find a 'system' partition (probably FAT32 formatted). Which boot loaders are present on that? Are they all added to the UEFI variables?– HennesCommented Jul 2, 2015 at 4:27

I am going to try using the boot-repair-disk, it appears you can install Ubuntu in Legacy or EUFI mode (help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI)– JREAMCommented Jul 2, 2015 at 5:23

I have solved it, 90% here is the solution on my X1 Carbon: ### In BIOS: - Disable Secure Boot - Change your Boot Order so that USB HDD - This is important otherwise Ubuntu will NOT boot in EFI mode or whatever you want to call it. - You can install Ubuntu this way, or if it's already installed follow these instructions from a live-cd or USB @ help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair - Next, after this go back into Windows and open BCDEdit -- and you have to Dink around with that and This part im stuck at.– JREAMCommented Jul 5, 2015 at 7:24

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
