G5 5000, COD BO7 is telling me to update my bios
My BIOS firmware is up to its most recent release for my 2020 G5 5000 desktop. But the game notification won't go away in Call of Duty Black Ops 7. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Intel i7-10700 F
Nvidia RTX 3070

@Jonhy 473 I have the same issue with my Dell G5 5000. Latest BIOS 1.29 dated July 2025. PPT and Secure Boot enabled in BIOS. TPM v2.0 reporting ready to use in Windows 11. Secure Boot State ON reported by Windows. Unable to get past this BIOS Update message. I can play the game without issue on an older Asus Prime Z390-A with BIOS dated 2024. Very disappointed.

I opened a case with Activision. After multiple back and forth answering their questions and providing logs and evidence the case was escalated to the "Higher Team". That team came back with the very basic "contact your hardware manufacturer". Most likely we need a BIOS upgrade to upgrade the TPM firmware. I am unable to open a Dell Support call at this time because I had to process an ownership transfer first for my service tag from the previous owner. This should take about 2 weeks. Once that is completed I will open a ticket with Dell. In the meantime the other users affected should do the same.

Are all G5 5000 users on TPM 2.0?
What is the TPM version?
* Click left Windows icon on taskbar
* Type cmd
* Click Command Prompt
* Type tpmtool getdeviceinformation <press Enter>
* Or press the Windows key
* Type tpm.msc <press Enter>

I contacted the service chat, but they can`t help me. They said: Dells BIOS is working "fine". I should contact activion.
Activion said contact Dell for a new BIOS. Maybe we should ask more often for a new BIOS.
I have a Dell G5 500 and COD BO7 comes up with a TPM 2.0 fail and want me to make a BIOS Update. I already checked all known steps: UEFI Boot, GPT harddrive, TPM 2.0 is working, secure boot is on, latest BIOS update (1.29.1) is running.

@DELL-ChrisM2 The Dell software says it’s up to date and Activision says it’s not. They told us to contact Dell.

Note that as Community Liaisons we do not have access to some Dell internal tools. To ensure a complete and secure analysis of your case we recommend contacting Dell GHN (Get Help Now) chat technical support. Click the blue "Get Help Now" on the right to start a private live chat session. Share the private Service Tag with them and all of your troubleshooting. This will in turn generate a unique Technical Support case for your unique Service Tag.

@DELL-ChrisM2
I did the hole "Get Help Now" Thing. They (Dell-support-Chat) couldn`t help at all.
May be you could ask for a BIOS Update to fix the problem or give us an adress to contact Dell Bios support ourself.
Thanx
