Hey everyone, I made a really big mistake while trying to enable secure boot on my ASUS motherboard. Now, my system won't find a boot device at all. I genuinely don't think my SSD is damaged since everything was working fine before. I declared my setup dead around 19:00 BST. I'm also shopping for a budget AM4 motherboard, and just want to confirm that all components should work properly and boot into Windows without any problems, right? Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated! I can't believe I messed up this badly.

I’ve handled this issue a few times. First, reset your BIOS completely and switch to the default profile. Then set your OS SSD as the primary boot device to try to boot into Windows again. After that, head to your Windows settings: go to Windows Update > Advanced options > Recovery > Advanced options and select the UEFI option. That should let you enable secure boot again—just save and restart after that.
Sounds good! I’ll give it a shot once I can boot into Windows. Thanks!
