HW Setup & BIOS Setup

Please note that the security controller settings are available on the second 
page of the BIOS setup application.

This setting enables or disables the computer's Trusted Platform Module 
(TPM) security controller.

This setting is used to erase the data stored as part of the Trusted Platform 
Module, as would be required, for example, when disposing of the 
computer or when the owner of the computer changes. Once this operation 
is carried out, the Trusted Platform Module configuration settings are 
erased such that any encrypted data can no longer be decrypted and the 
files can no longer be read. In view of this you must ensure that you backup 
or delete the data as necessary before carrying out this operation.

The procedure to follow is as detailed below:

1. Move the cursor to the Clear TPM Owner setting and press either the 

Space key or BACK SPACE key.

2. A message is displayed at which you should press the Y, E, S, and 

ENTER keys in sequence - the Trusted Platform Module information will 
then be erased.

3. The Trusted Platform Module setting will then change from being 

Enable to Disabled and the setting no longer displayed.

Allows you to set whether the BIOS diagnostic test is enabled or disabled.

Enable Trusted Platform Module security.

Disable Trusted Platform Module security 
(default).

When using TPM, please refer to the Infineon TPM Installation Guide 
from the C:\TOSAPINS\Infineon TPM Installation Guide and 
ensure that the user reads as it contains usage information and notes on 
using TPM security.

The diagnostic test is disabled (Default).

The diagnostic test is enabled.
