Ah, thanks for cluing me in on 'UEFI mode.' That made me think to see if there is a way to check if my computer is likely running in UEFI mode, and there is: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/85195-check-if-windows-10-using-uefi-legacy-bios.html I've got Secure Boot up and running now thanks...

Thanks much, @Colif. Appreciate the help. It seems that as long as my drives are formatted as GPT, I can (probably) set up Secure Boot without reformatting, then. I'm still on the fence about actually enabling it, but at least it seems to be an option. As always, Tom's Hardware forums are the...
