trying to locate the tpm slot on the acer nitro 5 the baseboard is H510M-A PRO (MS-7D22). I used the manual off msi but I couldn't locate it since the baseboard is from acer,

    The reference numbers that you have given above on your Nitro 5 mainboard mean nothing, as they don't relate to a specific Nitro model number laptop, give us the Nitro 5 model number like and something that a Nitro model is ID by and are known as e.g. AN515-xx or AN517-xx etc etc as then we can relate to your Nitro 5 mainboard allot better and give you more information.

    The yellow circled chip is the TPM chip on a Nitro 5 laptop (not all as the below example is for the AN515-52 laptop) but its usually located next to the EC chip on the mainboard,

    But, why would you want to know where the TPM slot for an Acer Nitro 5 laptop is? As even if you find it, you can’t change the TPM chip to make the Nitro 5 mainboard compatible with a Win-11 genuine Microsoft OS as it needs a TPM 2.0 security chip compatibility and it needs an Intel 8th Gen socket or a compatible minimum AMD socket cpu to be Win-11 compatible. Its useless changing the TPM chip to make a mainboard Win-11 compatible, as you are wasting your time. Good luck and hope this helps you out.
