I had this same error. You will receive this error if your BIOS is configured in Legacy Mode. Your BIOS has to be configured as UEFI and CSM must be disabled.

I also found out your OS needs to be installed with a GPT partition table and not a MBR partition table. There are ways to reconfigure your partition table without reinstalling your OS. You can find some of them here... https://www.google.com/webhp?complete=0# newwindow=1&complete=0&q=change+MBR+to+GPT Google

I found all the fixes to the errors I received here.. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/memory-and-storage/intel-optane-memory.html Support for Intel® Optane™ Memory

Hope this helps!

Hello SUNGYONHONG,

As JohnfromNH mentioned, this error is expected when your BIOS is set to Legacy mode instead of UEFI.

Please keep in mind that if your OS was installed in Legacy, simply disabling CSM will result in a blue screen error and failure to boot. Our best recommendation will be to reinstall your OS with your BIOS set up properly.

However, while not officially supported, the following workaround may help:

These steps where written for Windows* 7, but should apply to Windows® 10 as well.

Hello SUNGYONHONG,

We have not heard back from you in a while. Where you able to successfully install your Intel® Optane™ Memory module?
