Hi all, I just made a video where I explain how to bypass the artificial limit on TPM / CPU and install Windows 11 on your old PC. Check it out: ua-cam.com/video/UPPP-GyqMeY/v-deo.html
Hey everyone, thanks for watching! I've just made a video where I demonstrate the new features of the Windows 11 Insider Preview. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/jL5vL7HwKlw/v-deo.html
In my case (Gigabyte MB with an Intel B360 chipset, AMIBIOS firmware): 1. Press DEL to enter setup 2. Go to Advanced mode, if you're not in it already 3. Go to the "Peripherals" tab 4. Select the "Trusted computing" menu item 5. Enable trusted computing 6. If the TPM option doesn't show up, restart and re-enter the BIOS 7. Go to the same place 8. Enable TPM 2.0
Hey Andy, I’ve been wrapping my head around why my PCs saying ‘system requirements not met’, figured out it was because of this reason. You made it so simple, thank you!
Thank you for your help. I did follow the step from the Microsoft website but got lost at the point of finding PCH - FW configuration as they didn’t mention this. Awesome 👏🏻
When you changed the setting in the BIOS (I have that ability as well) did it mess up your current isntallation of Windows 10? Did you see any issues when you rebooted into the current OS?
Dude you don't understand how long I was looking around to fix this man. there is no way that playing a game requires so much bull to be done. 10/10 video bro
When you run PC Health Check and everything's green for windows 11. Then you go to settings > update & security. And it says you don't meet the requirements...
On most Asus boards TPM can be enabled like this: Intel. Advanced>PCH HW configuration and go for PTT and enable firmware TPM. AMD. Advanced>AMDFtpm>Device selection and enable Firmware TPM. If applied press F10 and reboot. To be certain recheck with that Windows tool or type in TPM.msc (which I am certain you only find in Win 10 Pro but I cannot confirm that) If properly enabled all info can be found there!)
Bravo, I was sitting there looking for a physical TPM chip for the motherboard to buy then came across this video and realised i had PTT all along it just needed to be enabled in the bios, thank you saves me time and money.
Wow, thank you, Andy, this video was just on time!!! I have an Asus ROG Hero X but my options are completely different from yours under PCH-FW Configuration...nothing like Firmware TPM. This is going to cause a lot of headaches for nontech-savvy people 👍👍👍
my motherboard is asus PRIME-H310M-D and in PCH-FW Configuration bios it simply has a selection disabled/enabled, was marked as disabled by default, marked it as enabled and it worked shows tpm 2.0 active and now shows as compatible with win11
@@SVX348 I have Asus z 170 and I had the same choice as You but after I enabled it and run this "compatibility check" it said I can't use new 11 .... what is strange because when I'm using this tmp.msc check it shows me I have 2.0 ... ;) 😉 I'd read thet there is a problem with windows software as well...
It may be rather more complicated than this, particularly if like me you have a PC that has been upgraded over time. Enabling 'secure boot' may require that you are fully configured for UEFI/GPT.
@@HandyAndyTechTips I have the exact same motherboard, processor, and bios version as you, but do not have the PCH-FW Configuration option. Any suggestions?
Very useful thanks. I just checked and both my current Dell Inspiron laptop and my previous 2015 one have TPM v2.0. So it looks like I'm ready for Windows 11!
Thank you! Was worried Windows would try and make me buy something just to upgrade my freakin windows when I just finished rebuilding my computer with new parts! lol
Thank you so much, I have a ibuypower pre built and I have the exact set up for the settings and menus. I have been trying to see how to do this for the past 24 hours great vid 👍👍😁
This was really helpful in helping me understand what a TPM was and why Windows wants to require it for Windows 11, as Mac has always been ahead of them on device security, but sadly even though my PC was built in early 2021, it does not have a TPM enabled nor even installed. At least my laptop has Windows 11 now, so I'm not completely upset about it.
Super Helpful! I just placed an order for a TPM Module from Asus but I realised I no longer need it as my AMD has the firmware version! Now the Windows 11 app says my PC can run it! Thank You so much
For AMD you really just have to go into the BIOS > Security and enable the advanced Security options then fTPM was enabled and the Windows 11 Tool said it could run
What should I do if I can’t see the advanced option after pressing advanced mode? I can see favourites, tweaker, settings, system info., boot and save and exit and that’s all. I don’t know what to do

Thank you for the info. When switching from discreet to firmware I get a note stating that if I lose the key I won't be able to boot in to the operating system. What key?
Thank you very much for your help. Couldn't find another video or website that showed this option or any explanation that it could be this. I've now got a functioning TPM 2.0 chip and are ready for Windows 11, thank you again.
No downsides, on the contrary, it significantly allows for the security of your system to be improved. OEMs should had this option enabled by default, seems like one of many security oversights the tech industry suffers from. At least now with W11, OEMs will be forced to enable it.
@@IcyTorment You can recover from such event if you encrypt using migratable keys. Refer to the Intel TPM Quick Reference Guide (www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/boardsandkits/D915GMH_TPM_QuickRefGuide01.pdf) for more info.
the thing is for me: (cpu r9 5950x) I got the firmware tpm selected but I still dont see it shown in the tpm "checker" The pc also got delivered with firmware tpm selected already any ideas how to fix?
Please make a video on secure boot option also.i cant find it in bios.But i know i have secure boot option.is there need a clean install of windows to enable secure boot? Update: Finally i found secure boot option.If you make uefi bootable pendrive then it will appear.
Hey Andy, you sure are handy! I just learned about TPM when I tested my system to see if it could run Windows 11. All of my components were made after 2018 so I expected the system to be capable of running W11. When I tested it, I got the TPM could not be found message. I was able to enable the fTPM option on my AMD Ryzen processor in the BIOS. I feel like a lot of windows users won't have the technical knowledge or understanding to be able to make a change to their BIOS to enable the TPM feature. A lot of people will be disappointed thinking that they will have to make hardware upgrades to upgrade to the new OS. I know MS is concerned about safety but they should make more of an effort to explain the TPM requirement.
My Asus mobo is slightly different cause it's a ROG one but it's close enough that I figured it out thx, can't believe we gotta go through all this just to download windows 11
Thank you for making this video! IF YOUR PC STILL SAYS YOU DONT MEET REQUIREMENTS AFTER DOING THIS. - go to windows insider program and set channel to beta instead of dev. It will let you after that :) pc is hard sometimes haha
Thank you for your help. I think this tpm requirement is so dumb. I could see it being useful for laptops.. but in a desktop setting, the odds of someone stealing it off my desk at home are pretty slim.. and even if they did, it's a gaming machine. You wouldn't find anything useful on it anyway.
Hello, great video but there is a problem with me, i dont have "TPM Device Selection" Option in Advanced\PCH-FW Configuration does that mean my motherboard cant support TPM or what should i do
