Symptome


You may receive the following error "Update FAILED: Invalid source version" when flashing the TPM 1.2 firmware on Kaby Lake systems. This article provides additional information on this issue and the steps to take for a resolution.


TPM Firmware Downgrade to TPM Version 1.2 error

The error message "Update FAILED: Invalid source version" may occur when flashing the TPM 1.2 firmware on Kaby Lake systems (see Figure 1). This error is caused by flashing the incorrect TPM 1.2 firmware version. Version 5.81.0.0 for Nuvaton TPMS was the version that existed prior to Dell shipping most Kaby Lake systems. When Kaby Lake started shipping we released Nuvaton TPM FW 5.81.2.1 as an update from 5.81.0.0. All systems should be proactively updated to Version 5.81.2.1 if they are using a Nuvaton TPM in 1.2 mode regardless of year created or processor.

If you are having difficulties flashing the TPM from version 5.81.0.0 to 5.81.2.1, try instead updating TPM 2.0 Firmware Update version 1.3.2.8_V1 listed below.
