    Do any of the C90S owners have a TPM that works.I ask because the asus site says the TPM comes with it but I am wondering if its optional and that the asus site is wrong by saying it has one by not saying its really optional.because I have 3 things that make me think it might be 1 that after turning it on in bios and correctly installing the latest drivers and software I can only get the device manager to say that the infineon trusted platform module has the error This device cannot start. (Code 10).2 the TPM software and control panel gives the error security platform connection does not exist.3 if I change the bios setting to display the full post list not the asus logo and I use the pause break button so I can take the time to read the what the post messages say it says that it cannot detect a TPM.has any one else seen this with their C90S.

    thanks for letting me know you have just saved me a lot of time now that I know that thats what it is I can move on to other things.I suspected it was that.So can you or do you know of any one that can order it if I am willing to buy it.I cant order it from the oem I got it from for the reason listed in my thread about how to get the 120W C90S upgrade adaptor.The details would be too long of a rant but trust me its just not an option thanks again
