Hello Dan,
It's probably not a driver issue as much as a bios issue.
To get TPM to work, the TPM chip has to be 1.2 which it is, now you need to
check with the bios vendor to make sure the bios in that system supports
TPM running on Windows Vista and if not when they plan to have such an
update available.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
