4-7 Smart TPM

GIGABYTE's unique Smart TPM (Trusted Platform Module) supports the industry's most advanced hardware-

based data encryption. Smart TPM provides users with an easy-to-use software interface to create a portable

userkeyusingaBluetoothcell phone or USB ash drive. Users can access/close theirPSDdatabysimply

connectingtotheBluetoothcellphoneorpluggingintheUSBashdrive,withoutthehasslesofcomplicated

congurations.Inaddition,userscancreatemorethanoneBluetoothcellphone/USBashdrivekey,sowhen

they lost a key they still can access data.

A. Before installing Smart TPM, follow the steps below in sequence:

Step 1:

As the computer starts, enter the BIOS Setup program. Go to the Security Chip Conguration menu and set Security Chip

to Enabled/Activate. It's recommended that you use the Clear Security Chip setting (press <Ctrl> + <F1> in the BIOS main

menu to display this setting) to clear the TPM chip. Save changes and then restart your computer.

• After creating the password(s) and key(s) associated the TPM, be sure to store them in a secure location

and back them up. Loss of the password(s) or the key(s) will render the les encrypted via the TPM unable

to be cracked or read.

• Though the TPM delivers the latest data security technology, it does not guarantee data integrity or provide

hardware protection. GIGABYTE is not liable for loss of encrypted data as a result of hardware damage.

• Previously encrypted les will become inaccessible after the TPM chip is cleared. Be sure to back up the

encrypted les rst.

• To prevent the TPM settings being cleared by other users, we recommend that you set the User Password

in the BIOS Setup program.
