    I  think  it  is  supported, sure  you  meet  the  other requierments, especially  TPM  2.0?

    I guess my PC isn't capable of Windows 11 since it doesn't have TPM.

    I ran the TPM.MSC and says TPM 1.2 or later cannot be found.

    I checked in the BIOS and don't see any settings (that I can find) for TPM or Secure Boot like others in here have found.

    The only setting I found was "PCI ROM Priority" which has 2 options: Legacy ROM and EFI Compatible ROM. I was set to Legacy ROM, so I changed it to EFI Compatible and rebooted, but the system wouldn't POST and couldn't get back into the BIOS without pressing the Clear CMOS button on the back on the system.

    My system specs are:

    ASRock (Intel Z68 chipset)Fatal1ty Z68 Pro

    CPU: Intel i7-3770K (OC to 4.4GHz)

    Memory: 16GB RAM (8GBx2)

    Video: Nvidia GTX 980ti

    SSD: 2TB (1.27TB Free)

    CPU: Intel i7-3770K (OC to 4.4GHz)

    Unfortunately, as far as I'm aware, that CPU won't support Intel PTT :(

    Intel PTT is basically the firmware alternative to the hardware-based TPM. Intel PTT works on pretty much every processor/chipset since 4th Gen Core (Haswell) processors were introduced and it even supports BitLocker. This is because Intel PTT supports all Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted Platform Module (fTPM) 2.0.

    Since my I7-3770K is Ivy Bridge, how would I check if it supports Intel PTT. I've done some searching can can't find for sure or not. Also don't see any BIOS settings for PTT (Platform Trust Tech)

    3rd Gen CPU, I believe it won't support Intel PTT :(

    Will Windows 11 come with Cantonese Phonetic input  method (keyboard) support, which was last  bundled in Office 2010, and will it come with  Traditional Chinese Stroke Input Method  (Keyboard) support, which was available on  Windows 10 Mobile but not Windows 10 Desktop?

    Without  your  system  Information  i  can  only guess, but  i  think  you  also  have  the  TPM  2.0  missing,  however  that  can be fixed  easily , press  windows  and  r , type  in  tpm.msc. If  it is  active,  you  will  see  the  version  at  the  bottom.

    If  not, proceed  with  restarting  your  Computer   and  entering  the Bios, now  enable  everything  related  to  TPM, for  intel  normally  in  security  tab, for  amd its  called  rtpm  and is only  visible  in  advanced  mode  :)

    8th Gen or higher CPUs are listed as required for Win 11, but that may well change seeing the amount of upset people around this
