Could not enter BIOS after installing Open Core on primary NVME

Hello,
I would like to inform you that I installed successfully Open Core on my external USB flash drive with no issue, and all was fine except for the temperature issue that I reported in another thread.
However, after I installed Open Core in the EFI partition of my primary NVME (Samsung Evo 970), I could not get in the BIOS setup screen anymore.
I could only get into the boot loading sequence menu (the one you access by pressing F8) and access the hard drive.
To solve the issue I had to reset the CMOS by linking the two pins described in the manual and take out the CMOS. After that, since neither this way the problem was solved, I had to install Windows and then use the BIOS flashing utility, which with I could install the latest BIOS version.
This finally fixed the issue.
