Hi, this problem is solved, F21 TC3 Workstation x86_64 and also Win 8.1 now boot in UEFI Mode, Secure Mode disabled. There had to be set a Supervisor Password in the Bios, to disable the Secure Mode (found this in a thread of an Acer forum). Nevertheless it would be nice to boot Linux and Windows in Secure Mode. Thank You to Samuel for his advices. Kind Regards

- That's the wrong entry. It seems it's not picking up the Fedora entry - from the hard disk for some reason. I didn't look closer to see what - the difference was between the two entries. I'm not clear on whether it - finds the entry from the hard drive or the one that Fedora created when - it was installed sticks around somehow.

- That would definitely be a solution.
Hi Disabling Secure Boot doesn't work on this Laptop (Acer E15 E5-571G-50K9) I tried according to the link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn481258.aspx Thank You for Your help so far, Samuel. Tomorrow the Acer Support is back, possibly they have an easy solution. Kind Regards
