Hi ,

Sabya here, Independent Windows Adviser. Hope you are doing well.

I can check from the specifications of your motherboard that it has UEFI support and Windows 11 Support -

If you are having issues, please make sure your BIOS is updated to the latest -

Please note flashing of the BIOS is risky and there is a chance of bricking the motherboard if it is not done correctly. Please make sure to check the process and to contact the manufacturer before proceeding -

This gigabyte bios will not allow win 11 no matter what I change, Ubantu installs fine

Are you able to access the motherboard BIOS ? Even if Windows isn't installed, you should be able to access the BIOS, and update the firmware from there. On Gigabyte motherboards, the app is called “Q-Flash”. Press the “End” key at boot to directly access Q-Flash.

Download the correct BIOS for your B550M-K motherboard using another computer, put it on a USB drive and launch the update.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues, and feel free to attach a screenshot to your answer if needed !
