![]() The TPM 2 security chip, that Win 11 looks, for can now be mitigated by a bios firmware update on 'some' systems. There are a few changes going on that are affecting the compatability fails/passes. Rufus - Create bootable USB drives the easy way If you don't like it you have about ten days to return to the old OS. If everything goes OK you should end up with a computer running win 11. Start the installation and go away for five hours. Rufus will give options on how to install ie ignore CPU and TPM requirements that a regular install would check first and stop win 11 from installing and also what to keep (existing files and programmes) ![]() Run rufus and direct the programme to where the ISO file resides. Also installed on a Dell laptop that only just doesn't support 11.ĭownload the windows 11 ISO and a copy of a programme called rufus, you will also need a memory stick of at least 8gb compacity. ![]() Typing this on an old Lenovo X220 which shouldn't support win 11 (running win 11). ![]() but a few days ago MS was giving me the chance to update Windows 10 pro on my Dell E6540 laptop to Windows 11 pro, I turned the update down (it showed up in the windows update option), it now says my laptop is not compatible again (no changes made at all) - not sure what that's about.Īpparently this was an accident and the option has been removed. While the requirement to upgrade a Windows 10 device to Windows 11 is only that the PC be Secure Boot capable by having UEFI/BIOS enabled, you may also consider enabling or turning Secure Boot on for better security.I don't know, but my laptop has always been incompatible with Windows 11 (it's always told me so anyway). Here are a few links to information from some PC manufacturers to help get you started: If you are unsure how to make any necessary changes to enable the UEFI/BIOS, we recommend that you check your PC manufacturer’s support information on their website. If so, you will need to choose for UEFI to be the first or only option. In some cases, there are options to enable both UEFI and Legacy/CSM. To change these settings, you will need to switch the PC boot mode from one enabled as “Legacy” BIOS (also known as “CSM” Mode) to UEFI/BIOS (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface). To access these settings, you can consult your PC manufacturer’s documentation or follow these instructions: Run Settings > Update & Security > Recovery and select Restart now under Advanced startup. From the next screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > UEFI Firmware Settings > Restart to make changes. Firmware, often called BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), is the software that starts up before Windows when you first turn on your PC. Most modern PCs are capable of Secure Boot, but in some instances, there may be settings that cause the PC to appear to not be capable of Secure Boot. These settings can be changed in the PC firmware. Secure Boot is an important security feature designed to prevent malicious software from loading when your PC starts up (boots). This article is intended for users who are not able to upgrade to Windows 11 because their PC is not currently Secure Boot capable. If you are unfamiliar with this level of technical detail, we recommend that you consult your PC manufacturer’s support information for more instructions specific to your device.
