I've got a computer set up to dual boot with Ubuntu and Windows 10, which was working fine for several months. Recently, Ubuntu started Blackscreening when launched via Grub or BIOS boot override (likely cause is a windows 10 update).
I've flashed a USB with Boot-Repair, and can successfully boot via Live USB. However, Boot-Repair requires booting with CSM/Legacy modes disabled. When I disable CSM in BIOS I get an error on boot to the tune of "VGA Card not Compatible with UEFI, CSM settings have been changed for compatibility" which seems to automatically re-enable CSM without any option to disable it, preventing me from using Boot repair.
What do I do?
EDIT: My Graphics card doesn't support UEFI mode. I have no idea how I'm supposed to run Boot-Repair now.

Suggested repair: ______________________________________________________________
The default repair of the Boot-Repair utility would purge (in order to unsign) and reinstall the grub-efi of
sdc4,
using the following options: sdc3/boot/efi
Additional repair would be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s use-standard-efi-file
Blockers in case of suggested repair: __________________________________________
The current session is in BIOS-compatibility mode. Please disable BIOS-compatibility/CSM/Legacy mode in your UEFI firmware, and use this software from a live-CD (or live-USB) that is compatible with UEFI booting mode. For example, use a live-USB of Boot-Repair-Disk-64bit (www.sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd), after making sure your BIOS is set up to boot USB in EFI mode. 64bits detected. Please use this software in a 64bits session. (Please use Boot-Repair-Disk-64bit (www.sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd) which contains a 64bits-compatible version of this software.) This will enable this feature.
Final advice in case of suggested repair: ______________________________________
Please do not forget to make your UEFI firmware boot on the Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS entry (sdc3/efi/****/grub****.efi (**** will be updated in the final message) file) !
If your computer reboots directly into Windows, try to change the boot order in your UEFI firmware.
If your UEFI firmware does not allow to change the boot order, change the default boot entry of the Windows bootloader.
For example you can boot into Windows, then type the following command in an admin command prompt:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\****\grub****.efi (**** will be updated in the final message)
The boot of your PC is in BIOS-compatibility/CSM/Legacy mode. You may want to retry after changing it to UEFI mode.
