  1. Win11 and Desktop question


    I got this advertisment from Microsoft: New Windows 11 PCs have arrivedand looked at the devices that have Win 11. They're all laptops and tablets. So -- Microsoft is not going to put Win11 on desktops? Only mobile devices?

    :)

    My Desktop won't run Win11... So what!

    You have TPM 1.0 connector like my board. You can't get the modules and they do not meet the Windows 11 spec anyway. I suggest you install the Windows 11 insider version on a separate partition and dual boot with Windows 10 as I did on a laptop.
