Newest computers start up thanks to the newest (from 2015 onwards) UEFI boot system.
If you want to switch from an old BIOS system to the newest UEFI system you need an EFI partition.
But the EFI partition needs to crafted in an very specific way. This option let's you check if your EFI partition has been crafted properly.
