    Enabling Bitlocker with TPM +PIN

    I have succesfully enabled bitlocker on several laptops for testing in our
    company, and now would like to enable bitlocker +PIN functionality.

    I have turned on the security policy, but have yet to find where i get
    prompted to set or use a PIN.

    Does this need to be enabled BEFORE bitlocker is enabled and has encrypted
    the volume?



    Thanks

    Hello Saintrga,

    The information that you seek is located within Vista's Help and Support
    Files, just checked for verification.

    Required several re-formats and re-install of Vista before learning the
    enormous importance for Vista's Help and Support Files, with Links provided.
