To enable TPM 2.0 in BIOS on an MSI motherboard, follow these steps:
- Restart your PC and repeatedly tap the Delete key or F2 key during startup to enter the BIOS.
- Press F7 to enter Advanced mode.
- Navigate to the "Settings" menu.
- Go to the "Security" tab.
- For AMD systems:
- Enable "Security Device Support."
- Set "AMD fTPM Switch" to [AMD fTPM].
- For Intel systems:
- Enable "Security Device Support."
- Under "Trusted Computing," set "TPM Device Selection" to Security PTT.
- Press F10 to save the settings and exit BIOS. Your system will reboot with TPM 2.0 enabled.
If your system does not have a discrete TPM chip, the TPM functionality is usually integrated as firmware TPM (fTPM) in AMD systems or Intel Platform Trust Technology (PTT) in Intel systems. After enabling TPM, you can check its status in Windows by running "tpm.msc" from the Run dialog to confirm TPM 2.0 is active. These instructions apply generally for MSI motherboards and help enable TPM 2.0, which is required for Windows 11 installation and enhanced security features.
