Before you can conclude that your computer is not detecting your TPM, you must first determine whether or not your laptop actually contains the chip.
There are several consumer-grade PCs that do not come equipped with the chips. Generally speaking, these may be found on a business-level computer.
Follow the rest of this article to find out a list of steps you can take to remedy the problem you’re experiencing. Note that the solutions are all applicable when the TPM is not showing in BIOS in HP, Lenovo, Dell, and other computers.
What does BIOS do?
The BIOS (pronounced bye-oss) is an acronym that stands for Basic Input/Output System. It is a ROM chip that is found on motherboards that allows you to access and configure your computer system at the most fundamental level.
The BIOS contains instructions on how to load the most fundamental computer hardware. It includes a test known as a POST (Power-On Self-Test) that assists in determining whether or not the computer meets the requirements to boot up properly.
You will hear a series of beeps if the computer does not successfully complete the POST. These beeps will indicate what is wrong with the computer.
A BIOS chip can only be upgraded by replacing the existing BIOS processor with a newer, more advanced version of the BIOS chip. Adding additional memory to a BIOS device is not possible.
If the BIOS chip is a flash BIOS, the data stored on it can be updated. The BIOS on a motherboard can be updated to fix problems or add new features by using software that has been specially designed for this purpose.
