What if you don’t have a physical TPM on your motherboard and no prospect of using a firmware TPM? In some cases, it is possible to buy a TPM as an add-on.
If not, then you may have to replace your motherboard at the very least. Hopefully, in light of the Windows 11 requirement, most motherboard makers will issue firmware updates for their motherboards, adding the feature. Some lower-end or gaming-focused motherboards may lack the option because they aren’t aimed at business customers. In some cases, despite your CPU having a firmware TPM feature, your motherboard may lack the option to toggle it on. However, since each motherboard brand and model may be different, you should check your motherboard manual for specific instructions on how to activate your firmware TPM. Usually, by default, motherboard makers disable firmware TPM functionality but then allow you to switch it on manually in your BIOS or UEFI menu. This is where things can become a little complicated.
