    I have a Windows 10 gaming desktop computer running Windows 10 Home 64-bit. It was bought brand new 2 years ago. 2021I am trying to upgrade to Windows 11.I ran the PC Health Check app and it said I met all requirements *except* not Secure Boot.I boot into my BIOS and see that Secure Boot is in fact enable.I do some googling and it says I must boot only using UEFI for Windows to detect the Secure Boot.BTW, my system disk is GPT so no problem there.I boot from 256GB SSD drive internal C:\I disable CSM in my BIOS and reboot. Nothing happens. It says no bootable disks found.I re-enable CSM a

  2. Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

    As the title says, I'm trying to install Windows on a RAID array in uefi on my Maximus V Formula. When using legacy ROM I can install just fine but I go into CSM and change settings to UEFI only, I can build the array in the UEFI Raid driver (IRST tab in "BIOS") but the array does not show up in the boot menu and when I try to install windows (boot from UEFI DVD drive), The drive does not show up in the Windows install. The next thing I tried was to enable UEFI and legacy oprom in CSM, boot from UEFI DVD drive and install to the RAID array (probably detected by legacy oprom) and it will install. After first reboot, Windows Boot manager will show up as an option in the BIOS boot menu so I set that as first boot device and reboot. I will get to the starting windows screen and then BSOD (too quick to get codes) The last thing I tried was Changing to legacy mode and installing windows to a different drive. once installed, I initialized the Raid array as GPT and rebooted, changed csm back to UEFI only but they RAID array still doesn't show in the boot device list so I repeated the earlier process hoping that It might work because I had initialized as GPT but it still BSODs on starting windows screen. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

    I think you were on track with your first try. Windows installer probably needs the RAID driver in order to detect it on install.

    Can't disable UEFI boot on HP 250 G3

    I got it, I was not accustomed to UEFI (because on HP 4540s I disabled it) and I automatically thought that if I boot from the first menu it will boot in UEFI mode, but I have to go to second menu "Boot From EFI File" to get a list of EFI boot options:

    I installed Ubuntu Mate and Windows 8.1 from the first menu (the picture) and they both installed in BIOS mode. Quite simple really.
