Enable Fast Boot after performing Windows 10 clean install?

My new G771 came with Window 8.1 so I did the upgrade to Windows 10 (and upgraded the BIOS to to 208), then downloaded Windows 10 on a USB flash drive for a clean install, and I had to disable Fast Boot and enable Launch CSM so that it would boot of the USB drive, but now how do I go about setting it back?

I've tried enabling Fast Boot, disabling CSM, and both enabling and disabling Secure Boot Control, but it won't ever boot into Windows (just the BIOS) unless I disable Fast Boot and enable Launch CSM.

Does this have something to do with the Secure Boot Control and the Key Management of the BIOS?

Thanks!

Did you flashed your usb key with Windows 10 UEFI Mode ? If not, this its your problem. You must use an usb with Windows in UEFI mode.

Yes, I used Rufus to create the Windows 10 USB boot device and set it to the default MBR partition scheme for BIOS or UEFI. Should I have used MBR or GPT partition scheme for UEFI instead?

Yep, that was it! I set it to GPT with UEFI and now I can boot into fast mode again. God some days I'm a tard...
