Sorry for the spam, looks like they just added UEFI support last week:

"Changelog
* Rewrite code for UEFI 32 & 64 bits"

Nothing worked. Both memtest86 and memtest86+ with grub or standalone
boot did not work on my core-i312100. I suspect it is a display driver
problem.
My regular bullseye install itself had this blank screen problem. Only
upgrading to kernel 5.16 from backport got my system working. Memtest is
having very similar issues.
With grub both versions of memtest removes menu and backgroud splash
screen shows and no more activity.
With boot USB, BIOS flashscreen, black screen, nothing more.
If anyone got this working on a 12th gen core i3/5/7, please follow up
and let me know how you got it working. Please copy me in your post, if
it is while (aka months) before you see this and followup.
