    Okay, but I installed it on UEFI according to Dell's instructions for windows 7, does it make sense to change to legacy?

    Not if you already have UEFI and it works properly for you, leave it as is.

    Is it possible that on uefi, apart from a faster start, the system itself will run slower?
    Comparing with my old computer, including chrome and launching a page, my old computer does it faster and is worse

    I don't know that because I have never installed win 7 on an interface other than regular legacy, I have never tried to mix, maybe someone will be able to answer this question?
    Maybe you just have a slow browser / page startup for another reason, maybe even the browser version itself or the internet connection? check on a different browser version

    The culprit was an incorrect chipset driver.

The conversation also touches on boot settings, suggesting switching from UEFI to Legacy mode for Windows 7 installation, and emphasizes the importance of proper driver installation from Dell's website. Additional concerns include sound issues and battery performance, with advice to adjust power settings for better efficiency.
