To enable Secure Boot for Battlefield (such as Battlefield 6), here are the essential steps:

  1. Restart the computer and enter the BIOS/UEFI settings by pressing the appropriate key on startup (usually F2, DEL, ESC, or F10 depending on the motherboard brand).
  2. In the BIOS/UEFI, set the boot mode to UEFI (not Legacy or CSM).
  3. Find the Secure Boot option (often under Security, Boot, or Authentication tab) and enable it. If the option is greyed out, ensure the system is set to UEFI mode and the disk format is GPT instead of MBR.
  4. If the disk is in MBR format, convert it to GPT either using Disk Management or the command prompt with commands:
    • mbr2gpt /validate /allowFullOS
    • mbr2gpt /convert /allowFullOS
  5. Save all changes and exit BIOS.
  6. Verify Secure Boot is enabled by running "msinfo32" from the Windows Run command. It should show Secure Boot State as "On".
  7. Additionally, enable TPM 2.0 as it's required along with Secure Boot for Battlefield's anti-cheat system.

These steps ensure that only verified software boots, providing necessary security for Battlefield's anti-cheat system to operate effectively and preventing unauthorized software or cheats from running during startup. This process is critical for running Battlefield 6 and similar games requiring Secure Boot as a safeguard against cheating and rootkit attacks. If the system fails to boot after enabling Secure Boot, it usually means the disk is still in MBR format and needs conversion to GPT. The process can vary slightly depending on the motherboard brand but generally follows these steps in the BIOS/UEFI interface.
