Hi, 

 

I'm pretty new to this stuff but I'm already pretty annoyed ;) 

I bought a 4K blueray player for my windows 10 PC but can't play anything 4K related. Cyberlinks blueray advisor tells me I'm missing sgx support. i hve a 6950x ith an x99 a board. Almost 2000€ together BUT I'm not able to play ANY blueray with this? Insteat I have to my a new skylake generation? Is this correct so far? :D

There is more information that you can read about this topic in previous postings at

and

In short, if the application such as Cyberlink one requires SGX, you will need SGX-enabled machine.

Having the CPU supporting SGX is not sufficient. It needs the BIOS supports and enables it too.

In another words, even getting a new machine with Skylake, SGX may still not be enabled.

Check with your OEM Provider on how to enable SGX in your system. Only OEM can provide a way to enable it if they allow you to do so.
