I'm trying to get Secure Boot enabled on my PC so I can play a game, but I'm running into issues. Whenever I enable it in the UEFI settings and save, my computer fails to boot into Windows 11 Pro and just restarts the BIOS instead. Here are the details of my setup:
- My BIOS is UEFI.
- I have an ASRock motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X CPU.
- When Secure Boot is off, Windows boots fine.
- I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the default keys for Secure Boot, saving with both Standard and Custom, but it doesn't help.
- CSM is disabled.
- I even installed a repair version of Windows 11, but that didn't solve the problem.
- Windows Boot Manager is my first boot option.
- I got the computer back in 2018.
If anyone can help me enable Secure Boot without causing issues like black screens, I would really appreciate it! Let me know if you need more information.

It sounds like you might need to check if your BIOS is up to date. If not, updating the BIOS could potentially solve compatibility issues. You can usually find an update for your specific motherboard model on the manufacturer's site. Just make sure to back up your data first! Let me know if you need help finding the right update!
Is there any specific method to update BIOS? Can I use Ethernet for it, or do I need a USB drive?
