Can confirm. You could also try updating your BIOS, as sometimes an older version is what's blocking the TPM or Secure Boot check. Hope that helps.

+1 I had the same problem. My 6700k needed a BIOS update to enable the TPM setting before the checker would pass. Good luck!

This happened to me too. I had to manually enable fTPM in my BIOS, and then the checker finally gave me the green light. Let me know if that works.

Yeah, and after you turn that on, double-check that Secure Boot is enabled as well.

I had the same problem. My motherboard needed a BIOS update to enable the TPM 2.0 setting, even though the chip was technically capable.
