When I built this PC I made a Windows 10 bootable USB and purchased a license key. I just did some reading about UEFI and found this interesting article, which said...



They explain how to...

Oh, I thought it was suppose to be in that list in advanced CPU settings. It is mentioned in the manual, but I don't have it in mine, which is why I wrote to Gigabyte support.

Anyway, we'll see...

Yeah, now just to find that other one, AMD CPU fTPM

I know my TPM is enabled because I did that a while back. I'll check again in misc,. but I'm pretty sure I already checked it.

I sent them a message on their website. I even attached the BIOS screenshot. We'll see what they say.

Thanks for all your help :)

Yes, but it's not shown in mine...

Ok, I checked again in the BIOS under advanced CPU settings, but there is no 'AMD CPU fTPM' listed.

Thank you sir for all your wonderful advice, and I like the Bill Murray encouragement, haha.

I checked my BIOS and under Tweaker tab I don't have any AMD CPU fTPM. I don't have to disable...

Ok I restarted, disabled CSM and enabled Secure Boot in the BIOS. I was a little apprehensive about that file you posted, but I got it and ran the thing. It was kind of funny. I thought it was going...

Ok, I entered the lines as you said and got this:

C:\Windows\system32> reagentc /disable
REAGENTC.EXE: Windows RE is already disabled.


C:\Windows\system32> reagentc /enable
REAGENTC.EXE:...

Doh. That's what I thought so I tried it again and got this:

C:\Windows\system32>mbr2gpt /convert /allowfullOS

MBR2GPT will now attempt to convert the default book disk.
If conversion is...

I tried that and all I get is this:

C:\Users\dougd>mbr2gpt /convert /allowfullOS

EnablePrivilege: AdjustTokenPrivileges failed (Error:0x514)
ERROR: Failed to enable backup/restore privileges....

Man, that stuff is way over my head. First, I don't have Windows PE and I'm not sure which one to download off the Microsoft site. Second. I don't even understand it enough to feel comfortable using...

Thanks everyone for the great replies. What is the importance of these settings? I mean, is having CSM enabled better than having it not enabled? If I disable CSM in the BIOS will this screw up...

I have a Gigabyte X570 Aurous Master mobo. PC health check says that my PC can't run Win 11 because I don't have secure boot. I've looked in the BIOS (under Boot menu) and I don't see secure boot...

Yeah those different colored USB ports are confusing.

How do you tell what goes where with so many options (USB 2, 3, 3.1, etc.). I think another user told me that the wired keyboard and...

Well don't I feel like the world's biggest idiot. What was happening is that the boot screen was there it was just appearing on my TV (which I had set up as a second monitor). I had my TV input set...

Ok I tried that. Plugged the USB dongle into one of the black ports on the back. I restarted and tried hitting delete key and I got the A6 error again. I unplugged the USB dongle and restarted again...

Ok, strange problem. I have the wired keyboard plugged into a USB port in the back and I have the USB dongle with Windows 10 on it plugged into the USB port of the front panel. I started the computer...

I just bought a cheap wired keyboard at Staples. It's hilarious how you have to revert to an older technology just to do one simple thing.

Thanks for the info. The keyboard says it is connected via bluetooth, but not by a dongle. I'm assuming it connects via the bluetooth in Windows. So I guess I'll have to find a cheap corded keyboard...

I'm thinking of reformatting my PC and I have some questions.

I have two M.2 drives - one (the C drive) is 500GB and the other (the D drive) is 1TB. Right now my system files are on the 500GB...

Got everything set up, cables managed, etc. It's all working great and I'm finally able to play Hollow Knight on my new PC. I thought I would share a couple photos of the whole thing. I'm using my TV...
