HP Elitebook Folio 9470m - Upgrate TP v1.2 to v2.0

[cecyoung]

I would like to upgrade the TPM v1.2 to v2.0.  I have read in the HP support this is possible but have not been able to find the steps or the v2.0 bits.

Hi:

Unfortunately, the TPM 1.2 hardware your notebook has is too old for the upgrade to 2.0.

See the list of HP PCs that can have the TPM upgraded to 2.0:

HP Desktops, Notebooks, and Workstations - HP TPM Configuration Utility With Windows 10 Anniversary ...

If you are willing to clean install W11, you should be able to get it to work.

See this article.  3rd headline from the bottom.

I'm running W11 on an old HP 8200 Elite with an i7-2600 processor and it works fine.

Thanks for the reply. I bought this 9470m in late 2012 so I am not surprised the TPM cannot be updated. I will see if I can rind Windows 11 on here for six months the purchase a new laptop.  I will do a clean install of Windows 11 ASAP.
