Bit Locker Hardware
Do I need any special hardware to run Bit Locker on a desktop that's part of a domain (Win 7)?
Do I need a TPM chip maybe? I don't really understand the usage of the TPM chip?
Are there different types of Bit Locker?

The device you want to install bit locker on either does need a TPM chip or you will have to create a encryption key on a USB stick that MUST be in a USB slot when the computer is turned on. No, there are not different versions of bit locker, but it only comes on Windows Enterprise and Ultimate - assuming you are talking about Windows 7. I'm not sure of the levels in 8 that support bit locker.
