Enable TPM 2.0

[Nickel996]

I have a Ryzen 7 5800x and a B550 motherboard and cannot get my TPM 2.0 to enable to update to Windows 11. I have used the following tutorial to try and failed.

Any ideas how to get it enabled

What specific board do you have? Since TPM chips weren't a necessity outside of enabling BitLocker, most B550 boards might not have them.

I thought AMD CPU's have some kind of TPM built in to them and all you had to do is enable the option in the UFEI?

That's what the rest of the internet seems to think but ive tried all the solutions and none have worked

do you have compatibility support module (CSM) enabled? might also be called legacy mode. if it is enabled(mine is) you'll want to back up anything important that you want to save because you'll need to re-partition your drive to be able to boot from it.

 

a way you may be able to check is to open disk management by searching for it in the windows search bar, then right click a disk in the lower portion of the window, click on properties, and go over to the volumes tab. if it says MBR in partition style like below, you're probably on legacy/csm and won't be able to get windows 11. if it says gpt, then you're probably on UEFI already and the problem is something else.
