Delete EFI/BOOT/startup.nsh from your USB stick. After these steps, the UEFI shell on the stick should show up on the F7 menu. If this helps you then I'll report this back to the BIOS team. Download EFI Shell for free. EFI Shell project of Tiano Core.
Not exactly...
Your motherboard does not use EFI, but the controller that is giving you a problem does. Have you tried pressing F2 during the various stages of the motherboard's booting process? According to what I could find, you it should be able to open EFI from your BIOS, that is if it can be opened at all.
What is the make and model of the motherboard that you have and exactly which Intel controller do you have? Is the controller on the board or is it on a card? If a card, is it Intel and what model?
If the controller is built into the motherboard, I don't know of any way to access its EFI except as I outlined.
However, you might get into EFI and the settings you need by starting the flashing procedure for EFI, either re-flashing V.17 or updating to V.20. You could start the process and see what turn up. You should be safe enough if you are careful and abort before you flash. Consider the content of the Readmes for the two update versions. You have to get the USB with the files to flash to boot.
Posting back with more information makes it easier to give you a better answer.
