Question ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 TPM module

[NorbertHUN95]

Hello Friends!

I have a motherboard as shown in the picture, on which there is a place for a TPM module next to the EATX connector, but there are no pins on it. They are not there by default. What would happen if I soldered pins there and inserted a TPM module? Could it work?

No extra questions.....I just want to officially use windows 11. I have already installed it unofficially and I'm using it. This is just curiosity now.

so no bios support?

I haven't found the option yet.....can't it just be hidden until the module is installed?

it´s try and error, I doubt you will find one that will say of course yes or absolutely no way this can work

maybe the transistors beside the pin holes might be needed to be soldered on as well. Have a look at different motherboard versions of this model and you might find clues

I looked for brother motherboards, but most of them don't have a place for the TPM, not even a specific module..... Google is not my friend in this regard, so I thought I'd ask more skilled people.

But it is good to start with the fact that probably other components are also missing. Thanks.😊
