Dan and all: After pressing Windows+R you must press enter after you
find the TPM message. That will take you to an expanded  tree view
where you should tab until you hear whether or not you have a trusted
program module (TPM). In my case, Windows suggests that I check my
bios for a TPM 1.2 or later.  I won't do that for two reasons:
1. I know my computer doesn't have one because of it's production date
and
 2. I don't want to mess with my bios---it might be too easy to make a
critical mistake :)
  Hope this helps:
