can't turn on secure boot after 8.1 reinstall - says, internal hard disk not found.

I recently fresh-reinstalled win8.1 (through .iso provided by MS)

I had turned off the secure boot and turned on the legacy boot, while installing 8.1. (so as to be able to boot from CD drive)

now, I am unable to change it back.

if I do (that is, turn on uefi secure boot), the message returns saying this:

internal hard disk drive not found to resolve this issue, try to reseat the drive
no bootable device – strike f1 to retry boot, f2 enter setup, f5 enter psa.

so, I had to return to legacy boot with secure boot off.

it seems... because of this, the start up is taking quite long.

any suggestions? guidance?

regards

biren
