Cannot install Zorin 16 Pro

Ah, now I understand.
It is an excellent idea :slight_smile:
OP can just make another installer USB with POP and test it out without installing it.

Note: Your BIOS may only have the Enabled and Disabled options, or it may not have these options if it only supports the Software Controlled option (or if it doesn’t support Intel SGX at all). Check with your device manufacturer to determine whether or not Intel SGX is supported on your system.
When Intel SGX is set to Enabled in the BIOS, Intel SGX has been enabled, and Intel SGX instructions and resources are available to applications.
When Intel SGX is set to Software Controlled, Intel SGX is initially disabled until it is enabled via a software application

SGX can be enabled/disabled by software too

For that I need win10 ... But I m nearly sure that my pc doesn't support this

Did you check every tab in the bios ?

Did you look in CSM ?

Also looked, nice mobo.

Did you do any bios updates @Heyrer2

Last one is from 3 weeks ago

Yes I did

I checked the user manual.
Found absolutely no mention about SGX.

Read the manjaro solution...

I've read.
Sounds like there is no solution....

Long story short I would not recommend using a 10th gen comet lake on ANY of their boards . Not only because of the SGX issue but their bios is geared toward rocket lake .

@Heyrer2 Here a possible solution

If you can not enable SGX in firmware you can add the boot option nosgx so the kernel will not try and use SGX when it detects the CPU supports it.

It sounds good.

@Heyrer2, if you read this please try this. nosgx command will fix this.

To temporarily add a boot parameter to a kernel

  1. Start your system and wait for the GRUB menu to show (if you don't see a GRUB menu, press and hold the left esc key or shift right after starting the system).
  2. Now highlight the kernel you want to use, and press the e key. You should be able to see and edit the commands associated with the highlighted kernel.
  3. Go down to the line starting with linux and add your parameter nosgx to its end.
  4. Now press Ctrl + x to boot.

To make this change permanent

  1. From a terminal (or after pressing Alt + F2) run:
 sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

(or use sudo nano if gksudo or gedit are not available) and enter your password.
2. Find the line starting with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and append nosgx to its end. For example:

 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nosgx "

Save the file and close the editor.
3. Finally, start a terminal and run:

 sudo update-grub

to update GRUB's configuration file (you probably need to enter your password).

On the next reboot, the kernel should be started with the boot parameter. To permanently remove it, simply remove the parameter from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and run sudo update-grub again.

Did you trying this? @Heyrer2 https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://download.01.org/intel-sgx/sgx-linux/2.12/docs/Intel_SGX_Installation_Guide_Linux_2.12_Open_Source.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiXwbWhqNr0AhVt-yoKHacPBYoQFnoECAwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2stHkTWd8ptcg8becJ4ryb

Hey @Heyrer2 can you please navigate to the "advanced" section of your BIOS and check the status of "Software Guard Extensions" (if available...but i think it is).

I am talking about the "advanced" menu in the top.
If it is disabled, then enable it.
