    This PC can't run Windows 11


    Have a PC running Windows 11. Trying to make a clean installation of Windows 11 from a USB stick. At first, wouldn't boot from USB stick. Opened BIOS, changed UEFI to CSM in the Boot-options, restarted. Boot from USB seems to work now, I get a prompt to set up Windows 11. When I continue after choosing language- and keyboardsettings, I get an error -message telling me that "This PC can't run Windows 11" because it doesn't meet the minimum system requirements. Which is nonsense, as the very same PC is already running Windows 11. What went wrong, and what can I do to fix it?

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    Annoying This PC can´t run Windows 11 message

    Hi folks I´ve got an older laptop here I´m using which I KNOW won´t run W11 and don´t want to even attempt to run it on as the default OS -- and W10 will still be current for a few years yet so why on earth every time I go to update W10 I get that stupid message
    This PC can't run Windows 11 355096d1639819369t-annoying-pc-can-t-run-windows-11-message-upd.png
    Surely there ought to be a user selectible option --> check if PC is able to run W11 or similar. Does it mean now we will have to see this message for ever on older computers that have no intention of having W11 installed on them. !!! (That said though I've installed W11 as a test via boot from VHDX physical disk note NOT a VM and using Dism /apply-image from a W11 iso downloaded from UUPDUMP and it does install and work on this same machine BTW -- but that's another issue -- I should be able to bootW10 and update normally without the annoying message). Cheers jimbo

  4. This PC can't run Windows 11

    "this pc doesn't currently meet the minimum system requirements to run windows 11"

    If the PC Health Check app says your system is compatible with Windows 11, download the Windows 11 ISO and do an in-place upgrade. See How to run In-place upgrade in Windows 11.

    If the setup fails, please share your setup logs on OneDrive. Follow these steps:

    • Open the "C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\" folder.
    • Select the two folders, "Panther" and "Rollback" (if present).
    • Copy the two folders to the desktop and Zip them.
    • Upload the zip file to OneDrive/Dropbox/WeTransfer.
