  1. Win Update KB5017389 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Build 22621.608 (22H2) - Sept. 30

    Hey it's available for me. Anyone else? Is it too early?
  2. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    To add correction, they sent the laptop to a facility that had Dell certified technicians to replace the motherboard and speaker. So far, no major issues. I don't really know why but my bios now has a lot of features unlocked like being able to turn tpm on and off etc. It seems the standard...
  3. Restore questions after motherboard replacement

    There is one more thing and I just realized this. I don't really know 100% how Macrium works so this may be a non-issue. 11 was installed and all setup to go for me with a local account after the repair. When I originally upgraded it to 11 I had set up a Microsoft login which I then switched to...
  4. Restore questions after motherboard replacement

    I can't find the new key but there was no lock on the drive. The new bios does look more.....full featured and even has Intel PTT switch to turn on and off the tpm. Would this in any way affect the Macrium image I want to restore? It is a full system image with all partitions. It looks like the...
  5. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    It was repaired by GeekSquad for free since it was under manufacture warranty. Everything seems ok rn but I can't find the new bitlocker recovery key for the new motherboard. Right now trying to locate it. The one for the old motherboard is on my Microsoft account, no new one. Actually I'm...
  6. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    The motherboard and speaker had to be replaced. I guess I'll find out if everything's fine soon.
  7. Restore questions after motherboard replacement

    Ok so my Dell ended up getting its motherboard replaced. When it was replaced, the drive was still encrypted so when it asked for the bitlocker key, it wouldn't recognize it. Right now I'm having the computers os re-installed so it can actually boot. I would like to restore everything I had...
  8. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    I could be jinxing it but even after multiple restarts the computer is now detecting TPM. I was able to get it to accept my Pin though every time I sign in it lists password first....can't seem to figure how to make the pin the default and the password secondary like before... The audio issue...
  9. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    According to Dell support I have all of my drivers up to date. I returned the computer to the store that I got it from and requested the same one which was ordered from Dell and picked up new at their store. This is a newer one since the first one I'm pretty sure said it was manufactured in...
  10. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    Ok so, when I got this same model again, one of the first things I checked when I had it set up I went into the bios under security. This model does NOT have a tpm toggle you can easily re-enable. Instead it has something to wipe the whole drive and that's it. The tpm driver is not being...
  11. Solved My TPM issue happened again.

    I wanted to fix my sudden crackling sounding audio so I went to dells site to check for updates. There was a bios update so I like usual went to install it. Once it rebooted from flashing Bios it gave me the TPM not being recognized error and "Something happened and your pin isn't available." I...
  12. Computer will suddenly start to freeze up and audio distorts

    I need to get to the bottom of this. This is the 2nd or 3rd time it's happened and I want to make sure it's not an issue. I keep getting a specific hardware error and I don't know how to diagnose it. The last few times I actually did need to update a driver since I wasn't using the latest one...
  13. Solved Transparency effects!

    Mine is working fine. I'm using 2021.5.0.0
  14. Possible Chrome black screen issue?

    I did that now and it seems to be working? I don't know why this would be an issue now.
