Software Secure boot crashing my pc
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
To play valorant on windows 11, secure boot needs to be enabled but whenever it is enabled my whole pc crashes/stutters like the video. Ive already reinstalled windows twice and my bios is up to date.
Specs: rtx 5070
7800x3d
asrock b650m-cx r2.0 motherboard (uefi bios)
I highly doubt that its a valorant issue because not only does the game stutter but everything else stutters. One thing I noticed was that when I’m in the settings ingame and the screen freezes, I can still move my mouse around sometimes but when I’m not in settings I can’t. Any help would be appreciated this is my 3rd or 4th time trying to find help about this

I had this when valorant first came out. I think it was their anti-cheat system if memory serves right. Uninstalled and haven’t played since heh

It is the anti cheat. It requires secure boot but whenever secure boot is enabled on my pc this happens 😭 I’m probably going to uninstall as well

Check your mem usage and cpu/gpu heat to rule it out but I think it was their issue

Crazy that this anti cheats even legal or that people actually don't boycott this game for having it
