CAUTION!
Advise your contact persons that they must provide you with TPM
backup copies. For security reasons, the TPM must be restored/re-
saved by the customer. After installing a new system board, the TPM
must be enabled. You may not clear the TPM data.
If the contact persons DO NOT have a backup copy available, inform
them that replacing the TPM will cause to lose all data.
14.4.2.1 Preliminary steps
Before removing the TPM, perform the following steps:
Ê
Before removing the TPM, it is necessary to remove BitLocker-protection
from the computer and to decrypt the volume.
Ask the system administrator to turn off BitLocker-protection using the
BitLocker setup wizard available either from the Control Panel or Windows
Explorer:
Ê
Open Bitlocker Drive Encryption by clicking the Start button, clicking
Control Panel , clicking Security , and then clicking Bitlocker Drive
Encryption .
I
Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an
administrator password or confirmation, type the password or
provide confirmation.
Ê

then click
Decrypt the volume

Decrypting the volume may be time-consuming. By decrypting the
volume, all of the information stored on that computer is decrypted.
For further information on how to disable BitLocker drive encryption,
please refer to the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
