In order to get SecureBoot you need UEFI mode to be enabled and CSM (Compatibility Support Module) to be enabled.

 

If your system was not configured properly the first time, then you'll need to convert your drive format from MBR to GPT, because UEFI mode only works with GPT formatted drives.

Hi there, I have a windows PC around 3 yrs old - kinda on the edge regards Win11 eligibility - according to the Health Check App I'm all good apart from secureboot. 

Is there a way to enable secure boot without having to do a completely clean install?? I've seen and almost completely followed instructions to update my Bios (Gigabyte z370H MB) but got a bit lost between Legacy Bios and UEFI to enable secureboot to be altered.. can anyone shed some light on this? Cheers
