Re: Secure Boot is enabled, but Madden 24 is saying it's not?

Why is it everytime I pay for early access on something this happens. It better be a game issue and not some security crap we have to alter settings for. I tried everything I read about fifa having that issue and now my pc fast boots and I can't access bios so they better fix this

  • youll have to go into your pc bios and find CSM and disable it save changes and exit, load bios again and enble secure boot. save and exit then you should be able to launch it.

    I did that and now my computer just gives a black screen. So I broke my PC for Madden. Thanks EA

  • Yes. I have windows 11 and I went into the Bios (Gigabyte) to turn on Secure Boot. I didn’t have the option so I turned off “CSM Support” to get the option. Then I enabled secure boot. After that I have gotten a black screen ever since and I have tried several things to fix it like taking out that motherboard memory battery.

  • @LIIACEllL I had exactly the same issue with a gigabyte motherboard did exactly as you did in the BIOS they still haven't diagnosed the problem with my PC yet which I took in this morning. When I enabled secure boot it went with a weird booting cycle and I also got a black screen and as of the latest my PC isn't booting to the BIOS at all because they think that my motherboard is too outdated to support secure boot so they are troubleshooting it as we speak I updated to windows 11 early this year and depending how the OS was installed for the boot cycle they also feel could be the problem I may need a new motherboard. The instructions for the procedure at all is risky depending on your motherboard I'm not savvy with messing with my BIOS I just followed what was posted like many others and the results are different depending on your situation.

    Yeah. Updating to Windows 11 was even a headache because I had to enable TPM 2.0. I have a laptop older than my desktop and it already has secure boot on AND had no issues moving to windows 11. I think its a Gigabyte problem. There is an update for the BIOS but I can't put it on without anything on the monitor. So even if I save my computer, I'd be a fool to try to get secure boot to work. I'm also probably just going to go back to windows 10 if I can.

    @LIIACEllL legit same * went to go change it kept getting black screen with line on top left now its all messed up
  • It's just a joke. I've been trying to solve this problem for 3 days. I made extra settings in the BIOS that I don't have to do for other games.

    Now I have activated this secure boot, but the game still doesn't work. Now comes the error message that I should start the game via Origin or EA App.

    I DO THIS ALL THE TIME AND HOW THE HELL SHOULD I USE ORIGIN IF IT DON'T EXIST ANYMORE!!!

    Look for a setting in bios (Asus motherboards for sure) and look for secure boot os setting.  Must be set to windows os instead of other os.  Hope this helps.

    I bought that one, too, and never even tested. Last night I found out that it has the very same problem, which makes me think EA will NOT patch this one for us. Now I have two games from them, paid full price and will not run. Notice they never mentioned Secure Boot in their minimum specs requirements. If they don't help us out of these things, they stole my money.
