I have recently downloaded the Windows 8.1 Pro version and I now have a "Secure Build isnt configured correctly build 9600" watermark on my desktop. I updated from windows 8 pro to 8.1. I tried to configure the bios to enable secure boot I cant find it anywhere on the BIOS screen. I have an ASUS X401a laptop. I also tried to edit the group policy that enable advanced boot options as well but nothing seems to work. Now my question is this fixable or will my laptop stop working after certain amount of time. This is very frustrating as I use this as my computer for school.  Also Windows 8 has been activated since I checked for the key and its fine.

    Secureboot doğru yapılandırılmadı

    open run ( type regedit )

    go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/Microsoft/windows/currentversion/policies/system/

    open EnableLUA put 0 instead of 1 in Value Data

    restart your PC .

    try to find your model number, and apply the bios update per the instructions.
