Restart your pc, spam f2 key, and use discord on your phone
by pressing f2 key, do i go into UEFI System??
Yes
and doesn't this affects my PC??
In order to enable secure boot and tpm you need to enter your bios
is it not gonna crash or anything else?
like, i'm not gonna be clicking anywhere else?
i feel like i don't wanna break my pc
no it won't, even if your pc doesn't boot anymore you can reset your settings back to normal
will it still work if i reset my pc? and it goes back to normal??
what I meant is that if you mishandle a setting and that your pc doesn't boot onto windows (kinda rare), you can revert back to your old settings without losing any data on windows
How?
resetting cmos
what is cmos?
it stands for Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor, i.e. it's a battery in your motherboard where if you remove it for 2-3 minutes it'll reset your settings to the manufacturer settings
does it lose any saved data?
no
k
^ do this
you can hold f2 while restarting if u don't wanna spam f2
if i was gonna restart my pc and hold down the f2 key, isn't not gonna break my pc?
no
perfect
press on the "Security" tab
and
once you've clicked on it, look for the "Secure Boot" option and open it by clicking on it
then send me a photo
under the security option??
yes
Do i click secure boot?
yes
Do i click secure boot mode?
* click on "Install default Secure Boot keys"
* press Yes on the popup window that will appear after that you've clicked on the "Install default Secure Boot keys" option
* press No for the second popup asking you to "Save Changes"
* set "Secure Boot Mode" to "Standard"
* set "Secure Boot" to Enabled
go to the Boot tab
next to the Security tab
click on the last option that is called CSM (Compatibility Support Module)
and switch the "CSM" or "CSM Support" option to Disabled
set the first option to disabled
K
What's next?
then go to the "Advanced" tab
select "CPU Configuration"
Next
switch "AMD fTPM Switch" to "AMD CPU fTPM"
it's the last option called "AMD fTPM Switch"
Do i just enable it?
set it to "AMD CPU fTPM" as said on the last message
K
What's next?
Do i exit? Or?
press f10 on your keyboard and click on Yes
You left out secure boot
once you have a black screen, hold f2
u need to reboot
when disabling csm or it keeps doing error
My pc has been reboot it
:Killjoy_Think: got it

^ do these steps again
He doesn't need to enable secure boot
Just tpm is enough
oh
well seen
Tho he might get the restriction later so yea just turn it on cuz wynaut
ok
I don't need to enable the secure boot?
Its ur choice rly
Do it if u wanna be sure
Tho its not necessary for now
if you're still on windows you can launch valorant to check
What restrictions?
The secure boot restriction
Will it say something?
this one
Yea it will ask u to enable secure boot in order to play
but you don't have it
What I don't have it?
launch valorant if you're on windows right now
if you're here :
i will guide you to enable it
it still doesn't work
search in your windows search bar "cmd"
execute it as administrator, and paste in this command :
it said, access is denied
Did you run the cmd as administrator
