Updating MSI gaming laptop to win11? TPM 2 is absent?
sublime tool
Have anyone experienced same problem ? BIOS settings are abysmally small and there is nothing TPM related . I am on extended security updates for w10 but eventually it will run off anyway.

I got screwed with a 5950x with a motherboard that supports tpm2
I'm now £500 down and running a 5800xt on a worse motherboard cos the system is bricked. No good reason but it's dead.
You need a specific disk partition type (gpt) for win11 as well as tpm2 and to be using uefi bios.
If any of that's missing or can't be enabled you won't be able to use windows 11
You could look into using one of the unofficial methods of getting it installed (eg. Rufus) and I'd strongly suggest you buy a new disk to do it on cos . There are a few options that allow you to strip out some of the requirements for install.
Also - get pro, you can disable the worst of the privacy/AI bullshit and run a local account on that (for now)
it changes depending on what microsoft patch so mileage may vary
