Hello noula,
I have found several TPM settings in your BIOS. TPM stands for "Trusted Platform Module" and allows you to easily encrypt your drive so that it can only be used in your computer. An application that you would use this with is BitLocker Drive Encryption (included in certain editions of Windows). This is useful in the case of computer theft.
The criminal needs your Windows password to enter Windows and modify files. Since they do not have that, they are likely to remove the drive and insert it into another computer and copy your files directly. If the drive is encrypted, then the hard drive can only be accessed in two ways. The first is knowing the drive encryption password. The second is having the integrated (into the motherboard) TPM chip present and settings configured, which automatically enters the password for you ONLY on your specific computer.
I am going to try and find a menu to put these settings under. Right now, all of the settings are linked. All I have to do is find a menu to put them under. I will continue posting my progress. If I cannot find a menu, they will go under the "LCP Control Sub-Menu".
Your BIOS is more complex/advanced than any other new-style Phoenix BIOS I have modded before. I have never seen so many settings available for unlock and in conventional ways!
Other Updates: I have reorganized the Advanced Menu and made it less redundant. I will continue to add new settings that were previously unavailable to take the place of those I removed.

Hello noula,
I found the TPM settings and can add them, but I am going to hold off on doing so until I am more familiar with the TPM settings. I want to make sure all of the required settings are there. The TPM items are strange in how they are listed in your BIOS.
I only have a little more work with the Advanced Menu to do and then the modding process is complete. After that, I am going to check my work and write up a BIOS mod documentation of all of the changes I made.
