## Disabling Secure Boot

Any procedure affecting the firmware flashing should be preceded by controlling
the Secure Boot status and if it is turned on, turning it off. The enabled
Secure Boot will not only prevent you from operating on the firmware, but you
will also not be able to launch DTS.

To check the Secure Boot state:

1. Turn off the station on which you want to test the Dasharo firmware.
1. Turn the station on and go to the next step immediately.
1. Hold the `BIOS SETUP KEY` to enter the `BIOS MENU`.
1. Localize and enter the `Secure Boot` menu using the arrow keys and Enter.
1. Verify that the `Secure Boot Status` field says `Disabled` - if not,
deselect the `Enforce Secure Boot` option using the arrow keys and Enter.
1. Change the setting of Secure Boot to `Disabled` and press Enter.
1. Press the `F10` key to open the dialog box.
1. Press `Enter` to confirm changes and exit from the menu.

After completing the steps described above, Secure Boot should be disabled.
You could confirm that by repeating steps 3 - 5.
