How to Check and Enable Secure Boot

How to check and enable Secure Boot for Call of Duty? Let's show how it works.

Step 1. Check Secure Boot Status:

• To open the System Information window, press Windows + R, type MSInfo32, and then click OK or press Enter.

• Under the System Summary tab, ensure your PC's BIOS mode is set to UEFI and Secure Boot State is enabled. Please note that if Secure Boot Start is not enabled, you need to activate it. 

Step 2. Access BIOS/UEFI settings:

If your settings are incorrect, access your computer's BIOS or UEFI settings by pressing the F2 or Delete button instantly, or through Windows' Advanced Startup Options.

• Click the Start button > search Advanced Startup Options > open the matched outcome > click Restart now.
• Choose Troubleshoot > Advanced options > UEFI Firmware Settings. 

• Click Restart to boot into your BIOS/UEFI settings.

Step 3. Enable Secure Boot in UEFI:

• In the UEFI settings, go to the Boot or Security tab > find the Secure Boot option > set it to Enabled.
• Ensure the Boot Mode or OS Type is UEFI. Please note that only GPT disks can support UEFI. If your system disk is GPT, you need to follow the next phase to convert the partition style. 
• If Secure Boot is enabled but not active, you may need to change the Secure Boot Mode to Standard or restore the factory keys.

Step 4. Save and Exit:

• Please remember to save your changes in BIOS before exiting it. 
• Your computer will restart, and with Secure Boot enabled, you can launch the Call of Duty game.

What Should I Do if Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Won't Start with TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot Enabled

The system requirements for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 have yet to be officially disclosed. However, based on prior Call of Duty games and the future game's TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot requirements, the game would most certainly require at least Windows 10 (64-bit) with TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot enabled.

If your Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 won't start even with TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot enabled, please ensure that your system disk is GPT and BIOS settings are correctly configured for UEFI boot mode. 

If not, you'd better convert your system disk from MBR to GPT and set the boot mode as UEFI. Let's show how it works.

1️⃣Convert MBR disks to GPT disks🔥 

Although Disk Management can convert MBR to GPT, it will delete all the volumes on your system disk. Thus, if you don't want to lose data, you'd better use EaseUS Todo Backup to back up your precious data saved on the previous MBR disk. After that, you're ready to change the partition style. 

In this case, here comes a powerful partition manager, EaseUS Partition Master. With the help of this handy third-party tool, you can convert MBR disks to GPT disks without losing data. 

Step 1. Install and launch EaseUS Partition Master on your computer.

Step 2. Open the Disk Converter tab, select "MBR => GPT" and click "Next" to continue.

Step 3. Choose the target MBR disk, and click "Convert" to start the conversion.

2️⃣Set the boot mode to UEFI

How to change BIOS mode from Legacy to UEFI? Here are the steps.

Step 1. Restart your PC > repeatedly press F2, Del, Esc, F10, F12, or another designated key until you enter the BIOS setup utility. 

Step 2. In the BIOS settings, find the Boot or System Configuration tab > select UEFI in the UEFI/BIOS Boot Mode.

Step 3. Find the Save and Exit tab > keep your changes > exit the UEFI settings.
