Windows 10: CPU Not Supported for windows 10 ?!

Wow, that's pretty old. Perhaps it doesn't support enabling NX for the processor ...

 

After a little digging I got my hands on the datasheet for this board. It DOES support the execute disable bit, and it is enabled by default. And the OP says it is on, so I'm running out of ideas here until he tells us the errors he received trying to install 8...

 

I will try to find a screenshot for the error as it was from long time !!

 

I Got that error & when googled to solve found that i should change windows startup setting Like in the second pic. But it didn't appear on my CD so i couldn't change it and Windows 8 didn't start !!
Note: that was before i enable VT-x on my BIOS but i don't know if there is relation or no

 

Please answer post # 11.

VT-x is called "Virtualization" in the BIOS, which I'm assuming is ON. It probably would have been by default.

 

It is already ON !!

 

I have similar issue. On trying win 10 upgrade both online & MSDN dvd says, CPU not supported for window 10.

Current Spec :
Intel C2D Mobile T6600 2.2 Ghz
RAM : 3GB
Mobo : HP Pavilion DV4 Notebook
Chipset : GM45
BIOS : Insyde
OS : Win7 Home Prem SP1 (x86)

I checked Virtualization is not supported by this processor.
Also checked, nothing except time & boot selection modifiable in bios.

Pl help me.

 

Sorry, but I don't think anyone can help you here. This CPU is 5 years old. Maybe a fresh install could work but then again, you would need a key in order to activate Windows 10. But I would not recommend to try this.

 

First, make sure your BIOS is updated to the latest version. That may fix your issue. If not read on.

If updating the BIOS doesn't fix your issue then reset all BIOS settings to their defaults and try again.

I recommend trying to install Windows 8.1 and see if you get the same error, if you don't then you should be able to upgrade to windows 10.
