a TCG command has returned an Error

Hello Everyone,

I have an error in the Event Viewer to appear again and again.
Have been for days Google searches and I’m not the only one. Unfortunately, I could not help so far. Have also been multiple Windows installed. Drivers are all up-to-date.

Had occasionally, though rarely, by the “TCG Command” error unfortunately, several BSODs.
Have the older Intel Rapid Storage 13.1 installed and thereby solve the problem.

With the standard driver msahci this error came up also. Just wonder why that occurs with all drivers. I know that the error associated with Windows 8.1 and my Crucial M550 is. Windows activated without asking when installing the edrive. In Microsoft, Crucial and Hardwareluxx Forum various users have this problem too.

Can anyone explain me why this problem does not occur only in Intel Rapid Storage 13.1?

Here is the Event:

@ Shasarazade:
Welcome at Win-RAID Forum!
I am sorry about the late reply, but I obviously have overlooked your post (there are so many new posts and new Forum members each day…).

No, I cannot explain this behavior, but maybe the answers given at the Microsoft Community (look >here<) will help you.

Anyway you can be happy at least, that you found an AHCI driver, which works fine for your system.

I also have this same error:
A TCG Command has returned an error.

Param1: 0x1
Param2: 0x60000001C
Param3: 0x900000006

In my case it was after updating to iRST driver v13.2.8.1002
I went back to the previous v13.1.0.1058 and the error is gone.
