OK so I do have ASUS motherboard and my TPM2 ACPI table is almost the
same match but:
BIOS Information
Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.
Version: 2212
Release Date: 12/13/2022
Address: 0xF0000
Runtime Size: 64 kB
ROM Size: 24 MB
Where as in you dmidecode.txt:
Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 26 bytes
BIOS Information
Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.
Version: 1601
Release Date: 02/11/2022
Address: 0xF0000
Runtime Size: 64 kB
ROM Size: 16 MB
So at least the BIOS version is older. Can you update BIOS and see if
that could possibly fix the issue?
Make sure that it contains update for both BIOS and Management Engine.
