    Are you running TPM 2.0?  Then all the RAM and CPU speed in the world won't help you.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/minimum-hardware-requirements-overview A 17-page long System requirements booklet from Microsoft, some interesting reading...

    Link to all supported AMD and Intel, and Qualcomm processors, scroll down to Windows 11 section.

    Wow, Windows 11 is starting to look more and more like the operating system that powers Deepthought computer from Douglas Addams Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy ;)

    I did a BIOS update on my PC ages ago, and it does not support TPM at all.

    What exactly is wrong here, could you guys please explain? If it's due to me having a 7th Gen processor released in 2018, then I am really shocked to see a 3 year old processor and a 1.5 year old system getting dropped from the supported list. I expected better.
