    So what happens if your PC cannot run Windows 11, and Windows 10 will die (i.e. does not get MS support) in 2025?
    Do you throw your PC in the bin?

    It is the intention!

    For  those  that  are  having  an  issue  after  enabling  TPM  make  sure  you  have  secure boot setup  as  well.

    Here  are  the  things  I  had  to  setup  to  get  the  green  checkmark.

    Enable  TMP

    Change  from  MBR  to  GPT

    Change  bios  to  UEFI  from  legacy

    Enable  secure  boot.

    This  fixed  all  the  issues  i  had  and  now  my  PC  is  ready  for  win  11

    At this point Microsoft absolutely needs to update their compatibility lists or at least explain why so many CPUs won't be supported. This is ballooning all over the internet.
