About this task CAUTION: After the TPM plug-in module is installed, it is cryptographically bound to that specific system board. Any attempt to remove an installed TPM plug-in module breaks the cryptographic binding, the removed TPM cannot be reinstalled or installed on another system board. Removing the TPM Steps 1. Locate the TPM connector on the system board. NOTE: To locate the TPM connector on the system board, see the System board jumpers and connectors section. 2. Press to hold down the module and remove the screw using the security Torx 8-bit shipped with the TPM module. 3. Slide the TPM module out from its connector. 4. Push the plastic rivet away from the TPM connector and rotate it 90° counterclockwise to release it from the system board. 5. Pull the plastic rivet out of its slot on the system board. Installing the TPM Steps 1. To install the TPM, align the edge connectors on the TPM with the slot on the TPM connector. 2. Insert the TPM into the TPM connector such that the plastic rivet aligns with the slot on the system board. 3. Press the plastic rivet until the rivet snaps into place. Figure 112. Installing the TPM Next steps 1. Install the system board. 2. Follow the procedure listed in After working inside your system on page 45. Initializing TPM for BitLocker users Steps Initialize the TPM. For more information, see https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc753140.aspx. The TPM Status changes to Enabled, Activated. 142 Installing and removing system components
