[Leica] Leica 135mm Apo Telyt M

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

Make sure you meet all the conditions, and approach Secure Boot with some
trepidation. I just decided to get my computer ready for Windows 11, and
enabled Secure Boot on my PC, and it would not even boot into BIOS again
after that. I have just wasted half a day debugging that, gaining access to
BIOS again, and turning the Secure Boot setting off  to get the computer
working again! The culprit was my Asus/Nvidia Graphics Card which seems to
be not compliant - it is a bit long in the tooth as GPUs go, but is working
very well, so I have to figure out whether an upgrade lies in my future or
not! I will probably just postpone migrating to Windows 11 for the time
being - as of now there does not seem to be any compelling reason to do so,
other than it is free!

Cheers
Jayanand
