    I have a Gigabyte X570 Gaming MB w/ AMD Ryzen 5. I was looking into upgrading to Win 11 but computer indicated TPM 2.0 missing. I followed some videos on Enableing this feature but the videos pointed to going into the bios and then settings (advanced) and enabling this feature. Unfortunately, when I go into the bios, I don't find a "settings" tab to enable this feature, nor do I find any tab that takes me to an Advanced screen.

    Hi joe645, I have the same AORUS motherboard and AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU.
    When you go into the BIOS, it will open in Easy Mode.
    On the mid-right side you will see a list which has ADVANCED Mode. Click on this and you will be in Advanced Mode.
    Along the top you will see SETTINGS. Click to open.
    Next screen will show a Menu on the left. Look for MISCELLANEOUS and click to open.
    Down the menu you should see AMD CPU FTPM.

    This link explains it all:

    Let's know how you get on.

    I must have "an only child" when it comes to this MB then, because I can't find the word Advanced anywhere on my Gigabyte SCREEN. At the top it reads M.I.T. - System - Bios - Peripherals - Chip Set - Power - Save & Exit.
    There is nothing on mid-right side. After viewing the video, my Gigabyte Screen doesn't resemble the one shown at all. I don't believe either that the board came in a box that have the AORUS logo on it.

    I did a Google and I think you pressed F7 key which puts the BIOS into M.I.T. Mode.
    I think/hope that if you press F2 key. you should get back to Easy Mode.

    Some further Googling and I found this link which gives the answer to why your BIOS appearance is different. It would seem that you have an earlier BIOS version and it shows under M.I.T that there is a Miscellaneous section. You will need to explore that to see if the process to enable TPM is available in there.

    This video shows the M.I.T BIOS and how to enable TPM.

    Trust me, I have explored everything I can think of and still can't locate ADVANCED. I found Missc. but there is nothing there that I can associate with TPM.

    Toggle F2 puts me in Easy Mode a screen that shows DRAM, Fan Speeds and other various system operations but no ADVANCED. Back to MIT mode and Missc. Settings brings me 5 selections;
    PCIEX x16 Slot Config - Auto
    PCle Slot Config - Disabled
    Pcle ASPM Mode - Disabled
    3DMARO1 Enhancement - Disabled
    TSME - Auto
