AMD fTPM not working (Ryzen 5 2600x)

[Trissetant]

Hey !

I wanted to prepare my computer for a future update to windows 11, and saw that my Ryzen 5 2600x was supposed to be fully compatible.

 

So I went into the Bios and turned on "AMD fTPM" , and when I restarted, The computer got into system recovery, saying that it was "unable to run Winload.efi".

 

I decided to put everything back to normal - which worked totally fine - and thought that it might just be that my windows 10 install was not compatible due to it being installed with the fTPM module disabled.

 

But a few days ago, I burned a windows 11 ISO just to check if it was compatible, and after turning back on the fTPM, my install CD was not able to boot (if I recall correcly, it either told me my computer was not compatible or crashed and restarted).

 

The manual of my motherboad (B450 Aorus Pro Wifi) suggests that I buy a TPM module, but I read online that Ryzen CPUs already had some sort of TPM 2.0 built-in.

Maybe a Bios update is required ?

 

Sorry for my bad english !

What mode is secureboot in? You'll want to install factory keys after turning on the fTPM

The secure boot is off, I just tried turning it on to standard mode, then turn on the fTPM, then restart and the system got in recovery mode :/

Got to this menu, what should I do ?

Update :

I did a little more research on it, seems that Gigabyte software enters in conflict with the fTPM.

I will try updating my BIOS and uninstalling all the gigabyte software (rip RGB TT).

I will put an update after doing it, hopefully it will solve my problem !

It worked !

After removing all the gigabyte junk and flashing my bios, fTPM works just fine ! I am currently upgrading to Windows 11.
