look up your mobo company, should have instructions online. It can be a headache, I saw one guy having to clean install his SSD because he was on legacy instead of UEFI. The anticheat didn't prevent any cheaters, saw plenty of them when the game went on sale. Less now.

You most likely have to install Win 11 soon anyway as Win10 support runs out in exactly 30 days, and there secureboot is enabled by default.
Well, only if you care about security features and some fixes at least.

is kinda easy, but I dont like the fact that they make us touch the bio and our configuration on the pc.
i would prefer a software that just verify the pc each time i want to play tbh

Imagine how much data is going to be mined from windows 10 users in the coming months.

Guess what else you won't be touching? BF2042, BF6 and many other upcoming multiplayer games.
Now is the part where you inhale your copium and claim you "don't care". Go ahead.

Ubuntu is way more intrusive and mines data a billion more times than W11 .. you can easily disable telemetry in Windows 11

One thing I may have noticed is that you might want to update your drivers and motherboard if your Bios is having trouble with secure boot. Otherwise you are running something other than windows.

secure boot is nothing more than conforming to microsofts wishes and controlling your computer and habits. Secure boot does not stop any cheats and EA confirmed they can no longer control cheaters. They dont know hoe to assign a random key to each player each round that changes your controls or putting higher k/d ratio people in their own servers.

Anticheat is doing nothing.. BF2042 cheats are selling for under 10$/week and are undetected... i installed Battlefield 4 and having way more fun then in BF2042
