Hello i need to turn on secure boot but due to my bios showing that is older version i cant

[real crystal]

And in bios it shows that i have uefi but if i type informstion about system it shows that its older version

[wooden python]

I think you're lucky it didn't become unbootable by doing those changes...

This has to be configured before you install Windows btw, so you can't change it

[real crystal]

So im not able to instal Windows 11?

[wooden python]

you absolutely can, but if you're going to play Valorant or something, it's a good idea to set it up with secure boot and reinstall Windows

[real crystal]

yeah but how can i do it?

like i mean how to reinstal windows and have secure boot on

[real crystal]

@wooden python

[flint ember]

Are you using legacy mode...right now?...

[real crystal]

it shows that its old version so i think yeah

[flint ember]

What old version?... Screenshot it..

[real crystal]

its in other language so yeah for you its legacy

[flint ember]

You can...
-make a windows bootable usb..
-backup personal files from C drive...
-boot into bios...
-switch to uefi mode only..and turn on secure boot...
reinstall windows...via bootable usb..

However...there is a less complex method... but its not guaranteed to work!...

Its to run mbr2gpt command...in cmd (admin)

Make a bootable usb stick and backup your personal files before...... if you go this route!

[real crystal]

i dont need any personal files and i dont have pendrive jokes on me 😂

[real crystal]

nvm i found one wish me luck so i wont f*uck anything up

[real crystal]

@flint ember i need a Lil help cause when im going into the bios and turn off some settings which says that if you turn off it will enable secure boot and i try to get out of bios it Kicks be back to bios and this way i cant reinstal Windows

[flint ember]

Boot from usb...you can do that from bios...

then reinstall windows...

[real crystal]

so i need to download windows on pendrive then go into bios turn on secure boot then boot widnows from usb?

[flint ember]

prepare the usb using...windows installation media..then do the rest

[real crystal]

Yeah i did but im having problem with booting from usb

i cant find this option in my bios

[flint ember]

Screenshot boot section..in the bios

[real crystal]

@flint ember

[flint ember]

is the usb stick...plugged in?

[real crystal]

Yeah

@flint ember i restarted bios with USB in and now i got more

[flint ember]

just as I thought... faulty usb stick...whats the brand of this usb stick?

[real crystal]

Nah its my bad actually cause i pluged it in when i went into bios not before

[flint ember]

now try to boot from it... still the usb stick is in bad condition

[real crystal]

Its not but what boot option is it

[flint ember]

see the boot override...near the bottom... click UEFI: vendorCO....partition 1

[real crystal]

And before that i should turn off cms right?

[flint ember]

that was the instruction..yep!

switch all to uefi only... and then boot from usb

[real crystal]

It kicked me back to bios

But it now doesnt show my ssd is that good?

[flint ember]

you turned off CSM?...

[real crystal]

Yes

[flint ember]

thats why... your ssd was set to boot in legacy mode... not uefi

boot from usb...

[real crystal]

When i click uefi from boot over drive it just lags for a sec and does nothing

[flint ember]

try again... your usb stick is corrupted or faulty... try to use a fresh or a new usb stick...if you can

[real crystal]

I turned on csm cause that was the only Way it wanted to boot

[flint ember]

the usb?...or the ssd?

[real crystal]

Maybe the problem is that my bios is set on legacy and cant launch csm

[real crystal]

I turned off csm and then clicked the USB

[flint ember]

then?

[real crystal]

Then my pc restarted and opened as allways

[flint ember]

booted back to desktop?

[real crystal]

Yes

[real crystal]

Should we maybe try to change my bios into uefi?

[flint ember]

do what you did before... you will need to boot from usb...try again

[real crystal]

Okay So turn off csm and then launch from usb?

[flint ember]

yep!... just click the usb from the boot override option

if it doesnt work...then you will need another usb stick...

[real crystal]

Yeah it doesnt but its becouse csm can we try to change my bios to uefi?

[flint ember]

just disable CSM...

and screenshot

[real crystal]

I disabeled it but what do i Screen shoot

[flint ember]

the CSM section and the boot section...

[flint ember]

now save and exit...and boot back to bios...

[flint ember]

@real crystal

[real crystal]

Yeah So what i did was turn off csm clicked on boot from usb it restarted and opened bios then i looked if csm is on and it was off so i clicked Save and exit and it kicked me to the bios

[flint ember]

you were supposed to... turn off csm and save and exit ...boot to bios and try to boot from usb

[real crystal]

Okay i will

But So it will boot like normalny to Windows i need to first turn csm on and then do everything u told me btw

[flint ember]

if you want to boot to windows... you will need to turn on CSM... but you are supposed to boot from usb stick..

[real crystal]

I turned off csm saved and exit it kicked me back to bios and now when i click on usb it lags and does nothing

[flint ember]

what happens afterwards?...

[real crystal]

.

[flint ember]

do you have another usb stick?...

[real crystal]

I dont think So but can we please somehow change bios from legacy to uefi?

[flint ember]

when you disable csm...its in uefi mode

problem is your usb stick... try to get another usb stick!

[real crystal]

I got another usb but im 100% sure its not its fault but i can still try another one if you recomend it

[flint ember]

[real crystal]
