How to Enable Secure Boot & Trusted Computing on MSI Bios Menu on PC (Best Method)
To enable Secure Boot and Trusted Platform Module (TPM / fTPM) on an MSI motherboard, follow these steps precisely. These instructions apply to modern MSI motherboards with UEFI firmware. 1. Preliminary Check Before modifying BIOS settings, confirm your current system meets Secure Boot requirements: Disk partition style: Must be GPT. Check in Windows: Press Win + R, type diskmgmt.msc. Right-click the drive → Properties → Volumes → check Partition Style. If the drive is MBR, it must be converted to GPT (backup first): mbr2gpt /validate /allowFullOS mbr2gpt /convert /allowFullOS BIOS mode: Must be UEFI (Legacy/CSM disabled). Check in Windows: Press Win + R, type msinfo32. Look at BIOS Mode. If it says Legacy/CSM, a BIOS change is required. Operating System: Windows 10/11 supports Secure Boot conveniently; ensure OS is compatible. 2. Enter BIOS Restart the computer. During POST, repeatedly press the DEL key (or F2 on some laptops) to access MSI BIOS. 3. Switch BIOS to UEFI Inside BIOS, press F7 to access Advanced Mode. Navigate: Settings → Advanced → Windows OS Configuration. Change CSM/Legacy Mode to UEFI. Save changes (F10) and reboot. Secure Boot will not appear until BIOS is in UEFI mode. 4. Enable Secure Boot Re-enter BIOS (DEL key). Navigate: Settings → Advanced → Windows OS Configuration → Secure Boot. Set Secure Boot to Enabled. If prompted about Platform Keys (PK): Select Install Default Keys or Restore Factory Keys. This ensures Secure Boot is in User mode, required for proper activation. Set Secure Boot Mode: Standard — Recommended for most users. Custom — Advanced users can manage keys manually. Save and exit (F10). Reboot. 5. Enable Trusted Platform Module (TPM / fTPM) Re-enter BIOS. Navigate: Settings → Security → Trusted Computing. Enable Security Device Support (this activates TPM 2.0 or AMD fTPM). Save changes (F10) and reboot. ... Twitter: https://twitter.com/YourSixStudios?la...
