This. Yeah, that's a good point. Also, double-check your RAM is actually running in dual-channel mode, as that can sometimes trip up the check. Good luck!

Agreed, and it's also worth double-checking that the TPM module itself is actually enabled in the BIOS settings, as it's sometimes off by default.

Can confirm. I had the same problem with my old i5. The PC Health Check app was useless for actually telling me what was wrong. Hope that helps.

Agreed. I had the same problem with my old 6700k. I used the Media Creation Tool to make a bootable USB and did a clean install, which finally worked.

I had the same problem. For me, disabling Secure Boot in the BIOS and then re-enabling it finally got the installer to recognize my TPM. Let me know if that works.

Hey there, I totally feel your frustration. That i5-7500 is still a capable chip, but unfortunately, it's officially excluded from Microsoft's supported CPU list, which is why you're hitting that wall. The TPM 2.0 requirement is the other big hurdle.

Don't give up just yet! There are free, official ...
