Found an odd hang that leaves no record on host when triggered.
I have a really old system, and I bought a TPM 2.0 module to use on it. I hadn't realized all the details of using it (like needing to reinstall fresh to change secure boot mode). I assumed I could...
The system was not originally designed for TPM 2.0 or Secure Boot, which complicates the integration.
Installing the TPM causes unpredictable hangs after some use, with no clear logs or diagnostics indicating the root cause.
BIOS/firmware quirks, hardware damage from accidental shorting, and BIOS settings inconsistencies could all contribute.
The system's behavior changes over time, making it difficult to correlate the cause with the symptoms.
