To enable TPM 2.0 in BIOS , you usually need to enter your motherboard’s firmware setup, find the TPM/PTT/fTPM setting, switch it to Enabled, then save and reboot your PC.

What TPM 2.0 Is

  • TPM 2.0 is a security chip or firmware feature that stores cryptographic keys and helps with secure boot and encryption.
  • Windows 11 and some anti‑cheat systems require TPM 2.0 to be turned on before installation or use.

General Step‑by‑Step Guide

  1. Restart your PC and press the BIOS key during startup (commonly Delete, F2, F10, or Esc, depending on the manufacturer).
  1. Enter Advanced or Expert/Advanced Mode if your BIOS has a simple mode by default.
  1. Go to the Security or Advanced tab; on some boards this may be under Settings → Miscellaneous or Trusted Computing.
  1. Look for one of these options, depending on CPU and board:
    • Intel: TPM , PTT (Intel Platform Trust Technology), or Intel Platform Trust Technology.
 * AMD: **AMD fTPM** , **AMD CPU fTPM** , or Firmware TPM.
  1. Change the TPM/PTT/fTPM option from Disabled to Enabled or select “Firmware TPM” where applicable.
  1. Press F10 or choose Save & Exit to apply changes and reboot into Windows.

Brand‑Specific Names and Locations

  • Gigabyte boards often place TPM controls under Settings → Miscellaneous with Intel PTT or AMD CPU fTPM entries.
  • ASUS boards commonly use Advanced → PCH‑FW Configuration (Intel, with PTT) or Advanced → AMD fTPM Configuration (AMD) in BIOS.
  • Many OEM systems (HP, Dell, Lenovo) label it simply as TPM Device / TPM State under a Security tab where you set TPM Device to Available and TPM State to Enable.

If You Don’t See TPM 2.0

  • Check your motherboard manual or support page to confirm that it supports TPM 2.0 or firmware TPM; older boards may need a discrete TPM module or may not fully support it.
  • Make sure you have the latest BIOS version installed, since newer firmware sometimes exposes TPM 2.0 options for Windows 11 readiness.

TL;DR: Enter BIOS, switch to Advanced mode, find TPM/PTT/fTPM under Security/Advanced, set it to Enabled or Firmware TPM, then save and reboot.
