"SGX disabled in bios" use "nosgx" as a boot option
When my computer first boots I get that "SGX disabled in bios" error. I did some reading and SGX not necessary. So how do I add "nogfx" option as a boot option? I saw that adding this command will stop that error from popping up at boot. I am not sure of the correct syntax either. So if anyone can help me with this it would be great!

That is not an error message. It is an informational message to let you know SGX is disabled (SGX is not being used).
You can add the
nosgx
kernel parameter to remove the message, but it will not change the functionality of SGX because SGX is not being used anyhow. You can use the following information How to add a kernel parameter to temporarily or permanently add the parameter.

Found another solution that works great if you set your SGX setting to Software Controlled:
