So because im gonna install ubuntu 15.04 alongside windows i need to disable secure boot. So i go in there and find that i cant change much. I did a little research and found out that you have to "unlock" your BIOS. How do i do this?

Hi Cyburg,

  

 Were you able to unlock the bios? I'm curious how since I also have an HP Envy.
