Summary :
Hewlett Packard (HP) is one of the best computers, and like any other computer, it has a BIOS that loads devices and the system after checking for errors. But sometimes, the “selected boot image did not authenticate.” error will occur. You can go to MiniTool to get the methods to fix it.
Selected Boot Image Did Not Authenticate
This error means that the security protocol was violated after checking the firmware database or the device from which the operating system was loaded could not provide the information needed for security to boot. This error can also mean that your boot loader information is missing, therefore, the operating system could not be loaded.
Here are three reasons for the “selected boot image did not authenticate” error.
1. This error occurs if your computer changes the boot order.
2. The boot image can become corrupt after an update or due to a malware attack.
3. Changes can happen due to the installation of new devices,
4. Upgrade/changes on the operating system (which changes the boot loader information).
How to Fix the “Selected Boot Image Did Not Authenticate” Error
Method 1: Change from Secure Boot to Legacy Boot in Your BIOS Settings
You should change from Secure Boot to legacy boot in your BIOS settings. If you are sure that your computer cannot complete the start because of the virus or malware attack, then you can’t use this method; use method 3 instead. Here are the steps.
