Windows 11 compatibility question on new installations - Intel Core i7-3840QM ( Asus ROG G6VW

Hi,

Will Microsoft let us install Windows 11 on a notebook with an Intel Core i7-3840QM , 8Gb, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M? I don't think the Intel Core i7-3840QM is listed as compatible even if it is still quite powerful for a notebook even in 2023. The notebook is an ASUS ROG G46VW.

Microsoft provides a registery change for those upgrading to bypass this restriction: Ways to install Windows 11 - Microsoft Support

This will be a fresh install from an ISO image. The disc will get wiped beforehand. Does a complete install from scratch bypass the hardware compatibility list?

Regards,

S.

 

Intel Core i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00 Ghz processor Windows 11 Compatible?

I just ran Microsoft's "PC Health Check" on my desktop pc to check for Windows 11 compatibility and it says the processor doesn't meet the required specifications. I have Intel Core i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00 Ghz processor. Everything else passed the testing.

However, when I check the processor requirements, the Intel Core i7-6700K CPU is listed as meeting the requirements. Can someone explain this?

I am running Windows 10 Pro, version 21H1, 64 bit, with 32 GB ram.

Windows 11 PC Health Check says my Intel Core i7-770HQ is not compatible

Hi, the Windows 11 PC Health Check says my Intel Core i7-770HQ is not compatible. This is not possible.

I checked the list of processors that are compatible and mine is on that list.

Can some please get back to me on this?

Thanks,
