Hello, I have a mainboard GA-X79 UD3 (rev.1.0) from Gigabyte. If I now put a TPM on it, which I can buy here, the GC-TPM 2.0 SPI 2.0, does that help? And where can I activate this part in the Bios. and if there is no activation in the Bios, is it already enough if it is plugged on the board. MFG Ralph

Answer

This module does not fit on your board, you need this one:

See manual p. 31.

When it comes to Windows 11, it is almost certain that the CPU is the problem. Here is the list to check:

There are lots of instructions on the internet on how to install Windows 11 anyway.
