Hello Toby,
Well I now have success, at least with the one legacy boot DVD that has
served as my main test case.
You will see below, that my settings were 'almost' what you suggested.

Some stuff for you to check in your BIOS, referring to where to find
it by the manual for the motherboard.
The "CSM" option is probably the most critical one you've missed, but
the others will help too.
Page 3-49 - CSM (Compatibility Support Module) - set to "Enabled".
That should make some options appear:
* Boot Device Control - set to "UEFI And Legacy"
* Boot from storage devices - set to "Both" or perhaps in your case,
"Legacy first".
My settings were all as you suggest. For the latter I'm using "Both".
Page 3-50 - Secure Boot - set to "Other OS".
This was my setting
While you're there, also "Install default secure boot keys" in case
they were screwed up somehow.
I haven't monkeyed with this, as I'm booting Fedora 21 OK.
Page 3-47 - Fast Boot - Set to Disabled.
was my setting.
Page 3-47 - SATA Support - Set to All Devices
was my setting, but this option is only available if "Fast Boot" set to
enabled, so put it back to "Fast Boot" disabled.
Page 3-48 - Boot logo display - set to "Disabled" in case there are
messages.
I had this enabled, now set to "Disabled".
Page 3-49 - Option ROM messages - set to Enabled.
was my setting
Page 3-37 of your manual -- "Legacy USB Support" - set to "Enabled",
or at least "Auto".
was set to "Enabled", left it there.
Page 3-38 of your manual -- xHCI Mode - set to Smart Auto.
was my setting
Same page. Mass Storage Devices - set to Auto.
I don't have this option
Page 3-35 of your manual -- "SATA Mode Selection - set to AHCI
was my setting.
So, the only real change I have made is Boot logo display set to
"Disabled", and it now boots legacy boot DVD. Curious that this would be
the cause of my problem, but hardly worth trying to figure out why.
As I surmised, nought to do with the installed OS.
Many thanks for your help
Cheers,
