2: Secure Boot

This page explains how to disable Secure Boot.

Assuming you are already in the BIOS setup due to the previous step, let's proceed with the next instructions:

  1. Locate the Secure Boot setting in your BIOS menu. This setting is typically found in the Security, Boot, or Authentication tab.

  2. If possible, set the Secure Boot option to Disabled. Note that the exact location and wording of this option may vary depending on your computer's manufacturer and BIOS version.

  3. Once you have made the changes, save them and exit the BIOS. Your PC will reboot to apply the new settings.

Please be aware that in certain cases, additional firmware settings may need to be adjusted to support legacy BIOS operating systems. This involves enabling a Compatibility Support Module (CSM). If you choose to use a CSM, it may be necessary to reformat your hard drive using the Master Boot Record (MBR) format and reinstall Windows.

Remember to exercise caution while modifying BIOS settings, as incorrect changes can impact system stability or functionality.
