Windows is not recognizing secure boot being enabled.

[Kotto]

I've been having issues upgrading to windows 11 with the tpm and the secure boot function. I got the tpm to work with ease but the secure boot is an issue. I've gone into the bios, disabled and re enabled secure boot but to prevail. I've also reset it to the default keys which didn't work either. I'm hoping any of you could help out since I don't trust myself tampering with the bios too much. Thanks in advance!

for reference I have: AMD ryzen 5 2600, GTX1060 6gig and an A320M-HDV R3.0 motherboard

Just install from a install usb.

Those A320 boards were made like garbage and had basically no effort put into the BIOS, so I would not be surprised if the secure boot toggle was just completely borked. A way I would test this would be to try to boot up into a Pop_OS! installer (or some other Linux distro that doesn't support Secure Boot). If it boots no issues, Secure Boot is broken on that board. If it fails to boot giving some error about the kernel, it's Windows that's the problem.

 

That said, AMD is having pretty severe issues with Windows 11 currently, to the point where people are reporting something like 20% less performance. I'd recommend you avoid Windows 11, it's still practically in beta with the amount of issues being reported, so if you want your system to be functional, stick with Windows 10 for at least the next few months.

Ye i read about this but I mainly just wanted to have it in order for when it is fully supported and there aren't too many problems with it. I might give that a try though, hope its not my motherboard since I rlly cba buying a new one atm
