AH552 - How to disable UEFI for Dual boot

Postby Kloster » Wed Sep 18, 2013 17:31

How do I turn my AH552 BIOS into a "Normal" legacy BIOS function, without any UEFI and signatures?

I need to install Ubuntu Linux as a Dual Boot option besides my existing Windows 7 installation, but it will not work.
Checking the AH552 BIOS, I found the following:

Code: Select all

Security

Secure Boot: Disabled
Protected Signatures: Enabled (User Mode) <------------------- Greyed out - Can't change this into Disabled
Customized Signatures: Disabled (Standard)

Secure Boot Option: Disabled

Change to Customized Signatures: [Enter] <------------------- What is this?
Reset to Manufacturing Default: [Enter]


Alternatively, is there any non-UEFI BIOS for AH552 to download and install?

Please help...
