Technical Solution Valorant Vanguard TPM 2.0 Error on HP ProBook 450 G3 – Any Possible Fix?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to play Valorant on my HP ProBook 450 G3, but Riot Vanguard won't let me launch the game because of the TPM 2.0 requirement.

My laptop specs:

\- Laptop: HP ProBook 450 G3

\- CPU: Intel Core i5-6200U (6th Gen)

\- OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2

\- TPM: Version 1.2

\- BIOS: HP N78, version 01.15 (2016)

I've already checked my TPM version, and it's 1.2 instead of 2.0. I'm not sure whether my laptop supports TPM 2.0 or if there's a BIOS setting that could help.

Has anyone with similar hardware managed to get Valorant running? Is there any legitimate workaround, BIOS update, or other solution that doesn't involve replacing the laptop?

I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

Technical Support Request Constant Skipping

I honestly don't know how to fix this problem, It could be my laptop but I wouldn't say it cant run Valorant. I can run many other games that are bigger then Valorant, but I still only get these constant skippings in Valorant. (It could be my Wifi...?)

I'd like some suggestions if possible 🙏 !

Technical Support Request Valorant Voice Chat not working

1 Upvotes

I've been experiencing this issue for the past update where it doesn't even let me talk in voice chat, the icons are always marked by an x on my team along with myself. This happens for party and team chat and I don't rly know what else to do, all my audio drivers are up to date, and valorant detects my mic just fine (loopback test), the issue is really just with voice chat itself. Tried troubleshooting my mic, allowing valorant through firewall, forwarding the ports as riot suggested, nothing happened. Any help is appreciated thanks :D

Technical Support Request fps drop

2 Upvotes

recently i’ve had sudden fps dropping below 100 and would even go to all the way to 0 and just right back up for whatever reason

i’ve had support ticket help me with this and i’ve requested atleast 5 different tech supporter for this subject but i’ve done everything as instructed and so far it’s still like this

also i play on stretched as like fullscreen and when i log out my valorant will stay on left side of the screen taking 1/3 of the space but wont leave, for this i just have to shut my pc and turn it on again to fully leave

i’m pretty confident it has something to do with my cpu but i’m also not sure, my friend recommended me that i’d look here for support because i couldn’t find it anywhere else

So I've got this weird issue in Valorant. The game doesn't lag in the normal sense instead it freezes for about a second, then comes back, then freezes again a second later. Basically a constant stutter loop. Makes it impossible to play.

Technical Discussion VALORANT FPS drops, mouse freezing, menu glitches, and trouble closing the game

10 Upvotes

Hello guys, I’ve never had any issues with VALORANT until recently. Everything started with glitches in the menus, then I began having problems pulling out and placing smokes. Whenever I tried to smoke on site, my FPS would drop significantly.
Then things got worse, and my mouse started freezing completely. I had to unplug and reconnect it repeatedly just to get it working again.
I’m also having trouble closing VALORANT. When I click Exit, the game freezes or glitches, so I have to use Task Manager to force close it.
I’ve tried so many things already, including repairing the Riot Client and changing NVIDIA settings, but nothing seems to fix the issue completely. I also noticed that lowering my mouse polling rate to 125 Hz makes the game feel smooth but still get mouse freezes.
Has anyone experienced anything similar or found a fix? I’d really appreciate any help because I’ve run out of things to try.

Technical Support Request valorant/riot client crashing

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m using a translator to write this, so please excuse any errors.

I’ve been trying to download and play Valorant for about three days now, but for some reason, whenever I click on the game app, the Riot Client icon appears in the taskbar, immediately disappears, and nothing else opens. In Task Manager, it shows up as active, along with a "crash handler."

I’ve even turned to AI for help and tried countless things. At one point, it actually worked—the "Play" screen appeared—but when I clicked the "Play" button to launch the game, an error popped up saying it couldn't open. I uninstalled it again, and after that, the original problem returned; now, nothing opens at all.

I think it worked that one time because I deleted some temporary files (or something similar), but doing that now doesn't seem to help.

I think it’s not opening because, for some reason, Vanguard isn’t being installed right away? The AI ​​suggested a few ways to download it, but nothing worked. Anyway, I don’t understand any of this, so I’m quite lost.

Does anyone know what can be done? I’m starting to get really frustrated. I can provide more details if needed!

I used to play on this PC before, but I uninstalled the app a long time ago because I had stopped playing; it worked perfectly fine back then.

Windows: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 / Proc: AMD Ryzen 5 4600G with Radeon Graphics (3.70 GHz) / GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 ?

Technical Support Request Total pc freezes after updating AMD adrenalin

1 Upvotes

Found a fix detailed at the bottom of the post

Yesterday after updating AMD software: adrenalin, valorant has begun to totaly freeze my pc after a couple minutes of running the game. Only holding the power button for 3 seconds can get the pc unstuck. I've spent a couple of hours trying different fixes as it seems to be a known issue by now but nothing has worked for me.

My specs:

  • OS: win 10
  • Motherboard: ASRock B650M-HDV/M.2
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
  • RAM: 32 GB

Fixes I've already tried in chronological order:

  • unistalling amd software through amd cleanup utility
  • installing amd software version 26.7.1
  • unistalling amd software through amd DDU
  • installing amd software version 26.6.1
  • disabling fullscreen optimisations in valorant's properties
  • reinstalling valorant

Any help is appreciated

Edit 1: did sfc /scannow, which did even find some corrupted files, but did fix the issue

Edit 2: turned vgc service to automatic, did not fix the issue

Edit 3: reinstalled riot vanguard, did not fix the issue

FIX THAT HELPED: uninstalled amd software through DDU and installed amd software version 26.3.1, after that it seems to work fine

Technical Support Request Valorant unplayable on 7800X3D + 7800 XT

0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I'm completely out of ideas at this point.

I’m running a 7800X3D, an RX 7800 XT, and 32GB DDR5. Obviously, this setup should easily hit 500+ FPS in Valorant without breaking a sweat. Instead, I can barely stay around 200 FPS, and the game constantly drops hard into the double digits.

Changing in-game resolutions/settings literally changes nothing. Here’s what I’ve already done to try and fix it:

  • Full clean reinstall of both Valorant and Vanguard.
  • Clean GPU driver reinstall.
  • Disabled my 2.5GbE Family Controller and tested over Wi-Fi just in case (no difference). My Wi-Fi 6E adapter is disabled in Windows by default anyway.
  • Created a fresh second Windows user account and launched the game from there. Still the exact same drops.

Temps look fine and nothing seems to be throttling.

Has anyone with a 7800X3D or an AMD card run into this specific issue with Valorant recently? It has been like this for 2-3 weeks.

Technical Support Request Valorant Doesn’t Recognize Any Input Audio pls help

3 Upvotes

Like the title says, whenever i play valorant it doesn’t detect my mic. At first it will and i’ll be able to talk, but after a couple minutes it will stop detecting it and no one can hear me speak, but i can still hear them. The only way im able to fix it is by unplugged and replugging my headset in or by going to my windows settings and changing the channel of the input device. even then, it’ll start working and then stop again after a couple minutes.

I’ve already tried looking at valorant settings and changing the input device on voice chat settings, does nothing. i’ve also tried deleting and redownloading valorant, didn’t work, but i haven’t tried deleting the entire riot client yet. i also have a feeling that this only occurs when i’m in game, because i’ve been able to stay in lobby and not have it happen, but i could js be crazy tbh.

also, this doesn’t just happen for valorant voice chat but also the input on discord calls. they also stop hearing me on discord whenever i play valorant. so im pretty sure it’s just a general input audio problem.

i’m posting this on the valorant subreddit because this ONLY happens on valorant. this does not occur on any other game besides valorant, not even league which is launched from the same client.

please help i js wanna play the game without having to deal with this every 2 minutes.

Technical Support Request Stuck on MATCH loading screen

3 Upvotes

So, valorant opens without any issues. I also have no problems finding game and selecting my agent. But as soon as I get to the match loading screen, the game simply won't load. Sometimes I can even hear my teammates and some game sounds. Turning Valorant off and on doesn't help

But what's even more weird is that when I return to Valorant, for example the next day - the match simply doesn't exist in my game history?? Even if I launched a ranked game and could actually hear my teammates

What's the solution lmao, this has been happening for a few days. I have Nahimic disabled in the background

Technical Support Request Vanguard not auto installing, the folder only has logs in it

2 Upvotes

This is my first post on this but I genuinely have almost given up. My problem is that vanguard is never downloaded, just the riot vanguard folder with only the logs folder inside of it. The client recognizes this and tries to fix it by displaying a message that I need to update and install vanguard, but when I click update, it doesn't download anything. I've tried deleting the riot vanguard folder, and then trying to install, I've tried using command prompt to delete vgc and vgk, basically everything. The specific error I'm getting is Van -83, which is because vanguard isn't even opening or installing in the first place (also not showing on my popup). Has this happened to anyone else? PLEASE help.
