I note that no boot options show up when I select 8.1/10, but my "Legacy Hard Drive" and "Legacy BEV" show up when I enable legacy boot. Do you think that a legacy only install could cause this?

There is no option for toggling secure boot, which is making me think that it's stuck on. I have disabled TPM and let it sit for a bit but nothing pops up on the screen except the regular bios.

I have tried to use my tv but it showed a black screen as well, the bios shows up and works fine so I'd imagine its not hardware related.

I've tried changing a lot of different settings and also reset to default a few times, but no luck.

Yes, the bios and touch functions perfectly fine

This whole BIOS is cryptic... what is "OS select" supposed to mean with the option for windows 7 or 8.1/10? I'd assume this is related to booting but theres little specification. Also, I can't perform a bios update

absolutely no grub or anything. this is probably my fault somehow though because ive heard of other people using it fine, and the overall compatibility was decent when it booted.

No, I am not. The installation media will show a black screen as well

I had a Surface Pro, and had trouble setting up a Mint on it due to missing drivers for the keyboard

There is a custom kernel for surface devices, and you might need it. Github

I don't think they will even if you demand them. Apple is a profit-motivated company.
