Enable TPM 2.0 on your CyberPowerPC System

How to enable TPM 2.0 on your CyberPowerPC System to prepare for Windows 11.

Not every existing PC running Windows 10 will be able to upgrade to Windows 11, though. Windows 11 will require Intel 8th Gen Coffee Lake or Zen 2 CPUs and up, TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) support, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. There are some extra workarounds you'll need to do if you want Windows 11.

If you follow the instructions above and you see the follow popup.

To prepare your system to make it ready for an upgrade, you'll need to enter your systems BIOS to make the necessary changes. See below for instructions for how to enter the BIOS on your computer and make the changes relative to your specific motherboard brand and CPU type.

Follow these steps:

1. Power on your computer.

2. Press <Del> after the CyberPowerPC Logo or Motherboard Manufacturer's Logo appears.

   Note: The screen may flash up quickly so you may need to try the above keystroke multiples times as there is a short window of opportunity for the system to recognize the key-press. (Del)
