Boots to OS just fine with "legacy support" enabled. When legacy disabled and secure boot enabled, I get "boot device not found" - install an OS on your hard drive"
All my OS updates are current.
On boot options I see "boot from EFI file" only, no hard drive listed.
I would like to enable "Secure boot".
What is going wrong??

Hi
I don't know.
Secure Boot is enacted by virtue of a Public Key on the Main Board, EG: Microsoft's, and then the BIOS option to use Secure Boot.
Next would be to "Format" the Hard Drive for Secure/GPT booting and not Legacy/MBR booting.
