Just as an FYI installing Windows 11 requires a TPM chip on your motherboard.

A lot of consumer motherboards don't come with these chips, although some have a header where you can install them.
Some motherboards (such as Ryzen compatible) have a firmware TPM implementation that can be enabled.
- po1nter 5y agosome processors have TPM built-in.
- sandman002 5y agoand even if they have to be enabled in uefi, I don't think MS expects the average user to dive through it to enable it. Also why not legacy bios support, I have an old dual core 2ghz Intel 8gb ram perfectly capable but doesn't have uefi support
- brundolf 5y agoI've never heard of TPM, but I bought a Ryzen 5800x and a motherboard to match about six months ago. Is it likely I'll need to add hardware? Or just fiddle with the BIOS? Or will this just work as-is?
- mrlonglong 5y agoTPM is on chip so you'll be fine, just enable it in UEFI
- chiph 5y agoCheck your motherboard manual. Some are already on the board and just need enabling in the BIOS. Some are on a plug-in module (sold separately).
