Unable to validate the TPM on MSI motherboard

Hello everyone,

Windows 11 is coming soon and I want to upgrade my desktop configuration which runs on a Core i3-4130.
WhyNotWin11 finds a lot of non-compliance issues, so I took the plunge and ordered:
- a new MSI A620M Pro motherboard
- 2x8 Go of DDR4
- a RYZEN 3 4300GE
- a CRUCIAL - Internal SSD - P2 - 500Go - M.2 Nvme (CT500P2SSD8)

I assembled this configuration in a case and installed W10, everything works fine... except that I can't validate the TPM!
I'm correctly doing the procedure in the MSI motherboard BIOS but W10 doesn't recognize the TPM.
So WhyNotWin11 tells me that everything is ready for W11... except for the TPM, of course.
And here I must admit that I am stuck.

Could someone explain to me how the TPM works on this configuration?
I really would prefer not to have to buy an external TPM that currently sells for between 75 and 100 €.
From what I understand, it should be the RYZEN that normally emulates a hardware TPM, but apparently it's not working for me and I don't know what to do to move forward.

Thank you for your help

Yves

Hello,
are you sure your motherboard is an MSI A620M Pro? It wouldn't be rather an MSI A320M Pro?
