Using Secure Boot basically breaks my pc

Windows 11 requires secure boot (upon full release, not the beta builds) and my PC says it supports it. So I go to BIOS, turn off CSM to use it and then enable secure boot. But the problem is, my PC instantly shut down and even when it was turned on, everything lit up BUT nothing appeared on my screen just the "No Signal" error. I'm back into my PC now however.

Is there a way to use Secure Boot without breaking my PC? I want to use windows 11 and I can't imagine going back to windows 10

    I have the complete same issue and my pc turns on and lights up but does not show up on my monitor. Do you have anyway we could get it to show back up on the screen.

    Thanks

    Is your system installed as a UEFI install?

    If you don't turn off CSM in BIOS, what happens ? Can't you run Windows 11 with CSM on and Secure Boot on ?

    If you turn off CSM, then you may have to clear secure boot keys and then recreate them. Did you try these ?
