The error you're encountering (VAN9003) indicates that VALORANT's anti-cheat system, Vanguard, requires Secure Boot to be enabled on your system. To resolve this issue, you need to enable Secure Boot from your BIOS settings. Here’s a simplified guide: 1. Check BIOS Mode: - Ensure your system is using UEFI mode, not Legacy BIOS. If it's in Legacy BIOS, switching to UEFI can cause your system to be unbootable without reconfiguring. 2. Access BIOS: - Restart your PC and enter your BIOS setup by pressing a specific key (usually F2, F10, DEL, or ESC) during startup. Refer to your PC manufacturer’s guide, if necessary. 3. Enable Secure Boot: - In the BIOS menu, find the Secure Boot option, typically located under the “Security” or “Boot” tab. - Enable Secure Boot. 4. Save and Exit: - Save your changes and exit the BIOS setup. Your PC will reboot. More details and troubleshooting steps can be found in this support article.
