Just don't use a CD/Thumb drive that begins with UEFI: <drive name> and the install will proceed in Legacy Mode.

MDL/Daz? Do NOT discuss this if this is the case here that you need Legacy Mode.

What wardog said.

Also, be sure the CSM option is Enabled, it is by default.

I'm curious why you are asking about this.

At the screen that offers you boot options, as I said above, choose the drive with the OS installer that begins with AHCI: xxx , not the one that begins UEFI: xxx
