Windows 10: win 11 failed. can't repair. now says incompatible.

had a computer running win 11 for over 2 years. last night it crashed and gets a registry error and keeps resetting. tried powering down 3 times to get in to repair mode but just kept restarting. used a iso boot usb to try to repair but it failed. tried to reset the updates but that didn't work. so i went to reinstall but now it says the computer is not compatible with win 11?

How Successful Would A Windows 11 Upgrade Be On This PC

Here is the list of supported AMD CPUs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...amd-processors The A8-4500M isn't on the list. It may still be possible to install 11 on the machine. There's a long thread in a sister forum: Let's install Windows 11 on an incompatible hardware | Windows 11 Forum

 

Upgrade Win 10 to Win 11 failed

Have PC with 4 partition managed by EasyBCD,

1. Boot partition (500M, active partition)

2. Win 7 (140G)

3. Win 10 (120G, my production machine, boot by default)

4. Win 7 (140G, play partition)

Recently try to upgrade partition 3 to Win 11. Upgrade steps seem to work smoothly until it reach 100%.

Then I get message "PC will restart in few moments"

Then I get "Win11 installation has failed"

I check the srttraic.txt file and found the folloing:

"Root cause found: No OS files found on disk

Repair action: Partition table repair

Result: Failed error code 0X20"

However, I seem to have no problem to boot my Win10 without error even the installation has failed.

Some trouble shooting from my side.

1. I am able to boot Win 7 or Win 7 (play partition) if I use a disk manager to set these partition to active.

2. I am not able to do so if I set Win 10 partition as active, I have to set the 500M boot partition and select Win 10 from boot menu.

3. I boot Win 10 installation disk from USB and try to repair my Win10 partition, but repair failed.

4. I backup the whole disk, set Win 7 partition as active, I can upgrade this partition from Win 7 to Win 10 and to Win 11.

5. Si I believe my PC hardware is no problem to support Win 11.

How can I recover my Win 10 partition without loosing my application so It can be boot without the boot partition?
