    I don't have a TPM module but enabled it in the BIOS and it says I have TPM 2.0.  Is this part of the chipset/processor to?

    You don't need to replace anything. The devs need to fix their borked hardware identifier. Many people who should be eligible are not. It's not our fault for not having the correct hardware.

    Yes, something is obviously wrong with the Insider settings detection software, hopefully, will be resolved easily, and put lots of peoples minds at ease.

    If your intel processor is not on this list, you're not going to be supported by Windows 11.

    Long-time Insider Dev participant here. I verified my system meets every requirement, including TPM 2.0 & Secure Boot (both on) & DirectX 12. Yet both the health check tool and the Windows Insider Program settings say my PC does not meet the requirements.

    The only possible discrepancy I found is DXDIAG shows my display driver is WDDM 3.0, and the requirements specify WDDM 2.x. I would think WDDM 2.x or later would suffice, but could that be the problem?
