I've built a couple of PCs using the Asus Z97 boards and they've worked OK on legacy boot, from what I can remember.
"Secure boot" probably needs to be off; Does "other os" do that, or is that a different setting? I don't remember what the Asus boards say. Change SATA controllers back to AHCI; IDE is for chumps. Go into the BIOS and find the "boot override" page, and then you should see that boot devices are listed twice, once for EFI boot and once for Legacy boot; select the latter.
