    Stop Code: UNSUPPORTED PROCESSOR

    Hi Luca,

    the description of this error is: Windows requires a higher-grade processor than the one you are using.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardwa...

    Check other BOIS versions even older. Try to reset BIOS.

    Was your CPU overclocked? This may be CPU fault.

    Run Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool.

    Processor compatibility for Winsows 11

    Hi Richard#49

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Microsoft were testing and adding some more processors, and did add some to the list, they indicate they have now completed testing, and no more processors will be added to the official list.

    It is possible to install Windows 11 on an unsupported processor using the Windows 11 ISO, I have Windows 11 installed on an unsupported Core i7 7700HQ processor and Windows 11 runs very smoothly, however Microsoft advise you do not do that, they will not be liable for any problems caused by doing that and also you would not receive Windows 11 updates, however, everyone that has installed Windows 11 on an unsupported processor is still receiving updates.

    Another option would be to contact your PC manufacturer to see if that processor can be upgraded.

    Microsoft provide the steps on this link:
