Yes you can do it by booting the computer to BIOS environment
How to:
press and hold the F10 key at the same time press the power key once and release the power key keep pressing F10
In less than a minute you will be in BIOS screen
Navigate to system configuration then boot option
You will have the legacy support and secure boot option which you can disable or enable as per your wish.
Note: user cant use mouse here user has to navigate with the help of arrow and enter key.
