Are you having trouble playing VALORANT because the game keeps closing and shows a pop-up message saying “UEFI Secure Boot verification failure”? If so, don’t worry—you’re not alone, and there are simple steps you can take to fix this problem.
First, make sure that your Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 are both enabled in your BIOS settings. You mentioned they are already turned on, and your BIOS is set to UEFI mode, so you’re on the right track. The issue might be related to your BIOS version or settings that need updating.
Since your system is an HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-0xxx with BIOS version AMI F.41, the best step is to update your BIOS to the latest version. Sometimes, BIOS updates fix compatibility issues that cause errors like this. You can download the latest BIOS from HP’s official support website.
Here’s how to do it:
1. Visit the HP support website and search for your specific model (HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-0xxx).
2. Navigate to the drivers and software section, and look for the BIOS updates.
3. Download the latest BIOS version available.
4. Follow the instructions provided carefully. Usually, this involves running a program from within Windows or creating a bootable USB drive to update the BIOS outside of Windows.
Before you update, make sure to close all programs and back up important data, just in case.
Once your BIOS is updated, restart your computer, enter BIOS setup (usually by pressing F10 during startup), and double-check that Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 are still enabled. Save any changes and exit.
Test again by launching VALORANT. The problem should be resolved, but if you still see the error, you might need to reset your BIOS to default settings, then re-enable Secure Boot and TPM 2.0.
If all else fails, contacting HP support might be a good idea—they can provide specific guidance for your model.
Taking these steps should help fix the “UEFI Secure Boot verification failure” error, so you can get back to enjoying your game.
