   VESA is a standardized video mode for BIOS systems.   
   UEFI is normal since more than 10 years ans CSM (that give old BIOS   
   functionality) isn't available on most new machines anymore.   
   UEFI uses GOP.   
   Although, to use all features (even resolutions) of your graphics chip,   
   you need the proper driver.   
      
   This isn't Microsoft´s liability - these are standards.   
      
      
   Upgrade to a current kernel and test there.
