Product: HP Z640 Workstation
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Server 2019

Hello,

 

I have an issue with my HP Z640 related to Secure Boot.  I just installed Windows Server 2019 Standard and noticed that, despite having the secure boot settings in the BIOS (v2.57) set to 'disable legacy and enable secure boot', Windows was reporting that secure boot is not currently enabled.  I've verified that the installation of Windows Server 2019 is on a GPT disk and has an EFI partition, so why is it that the machine will not use secure boot?  Is it related to secure boot keys at all?  I don't see an option in the BIOS to enroll the OS key in secure boot settings.  Below are some images for context.

I would love to hear ideas on how I could go about solving this issue.  Thanks in advance for your time!
