I had to change hard disk due to failure. I reinstalled windows 10 ok, but now I need to install linux in another free partition (dual boot). The problem is the enabled fast boot. I need to disable it to launch linux boot but I lost uefi password, created many years ago. I already tried changin reset jumpers and taking off cmos bactery, unsuccessfully. I tried also inserting 3 tiems a wrong password to get a system number, but it doesn'appare. Neither trhough advanced setting from widows start menù.
I don't won to change motherboard, please. thanks for a good suggestion.

You can install Linux distributions such as Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Linux Mint: Debian Edition , Fedora, OpenSUSE and the upcoming Linux Mint 20 (to name a few), with secure boot or fast boot enabled.

fast boot doesn't leave me to install from dvd or usb. It only starts with windows 10 and bypass any kind of other device's boot.
I need to change uefi parameter, but I'm asked for a password I Iost much time ago. Perhaps it could be possible by installing grub after windows starts, but I'm just newby with ubuntu and I'm not so skilled. I f I could access UEFI I'd have no problem.
