    Are you restoring a backup of an uEFI machine to a BIOS machine or vice-versa?  This is not supported.

    Switch the system to Legacy BIOS/CMOS mode or Auto Mode and try to boot with System Recovery Disk. Please refer to your hardware documentation to check if this option is available and how to change the boot mode.
