Found I can’t uograde my HP Z440 workstation to TPM2.0, so started looking around the web.
And found the flyby methods of by passing MS’s BS requirements.
Have anyone tried either flyoobe or it’s older version flyby11?
@Bill_L You can, need to do it from Windows…

If you get sp87753.exe and extract in linux that exe file, there is a PDF to show how etc…
I used it here on two HP Z440’s…
@Bill_L Likewise, I just run Windows 11 in a VM here? Just get your key via;
strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/MSDM
The CPU is the issue… but if you use Rufus, they have a tweaked version to bypass.
Last look in a search, my bios( v2.59) can’t be updated.
If I use a VM it would mean Win 10 removal, which isn’t all that bad. I only use windows to load our iPods since I can’t find a Linux application that will allow connection to the newer touch iPods.
I’ll likely just stay with Win 10. My support is extended to Oct 2026.
Why? I can get to my account without having to redo my password!
Or is that the only way to ‘enter’ that drawing?
