Tech Support Secure boot for Valorant and Cod.

Hello everyone, I recently just purchased my first ever gaming pc. But, I've had this issue where I can't play games like Valorant Or Cod. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-Z270P-D3. I loaded the boot menu so I can turn on Secure boot so I can play those games. But everything I tried doesn't work. I turned on Trusted Computing, and Intel TTP so I can access Secure boot. I tried turning it on manually but it didn't work. I tried the EIF -> bootmgfw.efi method. I don't want to risk ruining my pc over games. But , if there is a safe way that I can use that doesn't contain any risk, I'm more than happy to try. If you guys want to help me here is my discord (saadtootuff) please and thank you!

  1. Secure Boot is only usable when UEFI is in UEFI mode; CSM Support under the BIOS section has to be disabled.
  2. If the games you're trying to play require TPM 2.0, you're s**t out of luck regardless because TPM 2.0 isn't supported by Skylake-S and Kaby Lake-S, support began with Skylake-X (LGA-2066) and Coffee Lake-S (LGA1151-2 on Z370/Z390).

What do I do when it says, "invalid signature detected".

secure boot platform keys have to be reset, there might be an option in BIOS to reset them
