  2. Disable secure boot when field is greyed out in bios

    I want to disable secure boot so I can try to boot the laptop from a usb instead.

    I found this, which was not helpful due to the field being greyed out in the bios and not adjustable.
    -----------------------------
    In order to disable the secure boot option please follow the options as given below.

    1. Open the PC BIOS menu. You can often access this menu by pressing a key during the boot up sequence, such as F1, F2, F12, or Esc.
    Or, from Windows, hold the Shift key while selecting Restart. Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced Options: UEFI Firmware Settings.

    1. Find the Secure Boot setting, and if possible, set it to Disabled. This option is usually in either the Security tab, the Boot tab, or the Authentication tab.
    2. Save changes and exit. The PC reboots.

    Note: IF you make any incorrect changes in BIOS, this may lead to serious problem on your computer so before making any changes to the BIOS, I would suggest you to contact the Computer Manufacturers.

    BIOS Disclaimer:

    Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.

  3. No option to enable secure boot

    Hi! I'm trying to enable secure boot on my PC, but in the BIOS firmware menu I'm only given the options of standard or custom. There is no option to simply enable/disable secure boot and I can not find it under any other tab. I've tried switching between standard and custom, aswell as resetting BIOS to factory settings with no results. Some tutorials have been telling me to "load secure boot keys" but I can't find an option for that either.

    I had some trouble attaching a screenshot of my system information, hopefully it's attached.

    Enable Secure Boot B550M DS3H AC

    Hello Jose Luis Beltran Adame

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    Can you tell me your motherboard model? Click Search on the taskbar and enter Device Manager.

    To enable Secure Boot on your Gigabyte B550M DS3H AC motherboard, follow these steps:

    1. Enter BIOS Setup:

      Restart your computer and press the Del key (or the key specified for your motherboard) repeatedly as soon as the system starts to boot, to enter the BIOS setup.
    2. Navigate to the Boot Menu:

      Once in the BIOS, use the arrow keys to navigate. Look for a tab or section named Boot, Security, or something similar.
    3. Enable Secure Boot:
      1. Inside the Boot or Security menu, find the Secure Boot option. It might be under a submenu, often labeled as Windows OS Configuration, Boot Mode Selection, or similar.
      2. Change the Secure Boot setting from Disabled to Enabled.
    4. Change Boot Mode if Necessary:

      Make sure that the Boot Mode is set to UEFI and not Legacy or CSM (Compatibility Support Module). Secure Boot requires UEFI mode to be enabled.
    5. Save and Exit:

      Save the changes and exit the BIOS. This is usually done by pressing the F10 key and selecting Yes to save the configuration and restart the computer.
    This is the official detailed documentation:

    Enable Secure Boot on Windows devices - Microsoft Intune | Microsoft Learn

    If you cannot find the Secure Boot option, ensure that you have the latest firmware/BIOS version for your motherboard. Manufacturers sometimes update the BIOS to improve compatibility and add new features. You can check Gigabyte's official website for the latest BIOS version and instructions on how to update it.

    In case the Secure Boot option still doesn't appear, it might be hidden or disabled due to another setting in the BIOS, such as a legacy boot mode or CSM compatibility mode being enabled. Make sure these are set correctly or disabled to allow Secure Boot to be enabled.

    If you continue to face difficulties, consulting the motherboard's manual can provide more specific guidance, or contacting Gigabyte's support for assistance might be necessary.

    Disclaimer: Please back up important data in advance before performing any actions that may cause data loss.

    If there is anything not clear or I can't understand your problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards
