    Windows 11 says compatible, but in instalation says it isnt?


    Problem is that in my settings, and also in pc health check it says that i can install/upgrade windows 11, so i tried to upgrade to windows 11, but every time i get error and it reverted to windows 10. Now when i tried to clean install windows 11 it says in instalation screen that my pc does not meet the requirements. So i needed to cancel instalation.

    :)

    Splash screen says "this PC is unable to run windows 10" - Compatibility report says "You're Good to Go"

    I have a weird issue where the Windows 10 App is giving different information depending on what screen I am on.

    When I first open the app it says "Unfortunately, this PC is unable to run Windows 10" (See screen shot below)

    Windows 11 says compatible, but in instalation says it isnt? 417c1062-34da-41e9-843b-b5111b291b3d.jpg

    So I click on the "View Report" to check the compatibility issue and I get a clean bill of health saying "You're good to go, Your PC will work with Windows 10"

    Windows 11 says compatible, but in instalation says it isnt? 8b9e6d02-5777-481b-a89e-f31c7793461d.jpg

    What gives? I have not seen the temp folder showing that any files are getting downloaded in preparation for an install.

    Background:

    • The first time the compatibility report ran I had the widely reported issue of the CPU being reported as incompatible. I followed the instructions for forcing the patch for the App to be installed and I forced the compatibility checker to be re-run by following
      the steps over here How to Fix: CPU Not Compatible with Windows 10 Error (steps that are also suggested on this forum)
      • for whatever reason I got a confirmation saying that the compatibility checker had run in the command prompt but when I opened the app the last run day was from over a month ago and it still listed my CPU as being incompatible
      • Tried several more times with the same result
    • When the Launch date happened the App must have run itself as the "last run" date changed to 7/29 and the compatibility check says I am all good. But the splash screen still says this PC is unable to run windows 10
    • Uninstalling the app and re-downloading the necessary KB's doesn't fix the problem
    System info:

    • Lenovo W520 4270CTO
    • CPU: i7-2960XM @ 2.70 GHz
    • Video Card - Intel HD Graphics
    • Video Card Discrete - NVIDIA Quadro 2000M
    • Windows 7 SP1 64 bit
    Any thoughts / suggestions? Thanks!

  4. Windows 11 says compatible, but in instalation says it isnt?

    does this say i can install pc 2100?

    "Because DDR memory is backward-compatible, you can safely upgrade your system with any of the guaranteed-compatible DDR speeds listed below, even if your manual calls for PC1600 or PC2100 speeds."

    does that say i can install pc 2100 or i cannot install pc 2100? if my system uses pc 3200.
