ASRock Steel Legend
Follow the guide for your motherboard.
Before changing settings
Menu names depend on the model and BIOS version. Check your board manual and change only the listed settings.
Check the boot mode first: Win + R → msinfo32. If BIOS Mode is Legacy, prepare Windows for UEFI before disabling CSM, or the system may fail to boot.
If device encryption or BitLocker is enabled, save your recovery key first. Do not clear TPM or delete Secure Boot keys. Restoring factory keys is not suitable for every setup, especially with multiple operating systems.
This guide covers basic BIOS settings. If the anti-cheat separately requests IOMMU, VBS or a firmware update, follow the instructions for that error.
