So, this happened earlier today for the first time I pressed the start button on my computer and everything inside lit up (ram, GPU, motherboard, fans, etc) but then it all turned off. I then pressed the power button again and everything started up. Along with this, when the system actually...

To play Valorant it required me to turn on secure boot and TPM 2.0, which I've done in the past. Ever since I got a NVME I haven't been able to enable secure boot. So, as a way to remedy that I thought I should do something with Platform Keys, something I shouldn't mess with. After that I get...
