Windows 10: Xeon Gold 6330 CPU not passing Windows 11 requirements

I'm trying to get a VM to pass the requirements in the PC Health check app. I have already added the TPM module, and it passes the check. The only remaining block is the processor check. According to the supported CPUs, Xeon 6330 Gold should work, but I'm getting the "x" saying that the processor isn't currently supported. Anyone else see this or have any suggestions? I'm running ESXi 7.x and have the machine version at 19.

Xeon not supported on Windows 11

I have Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1505M v6 @ 3.00GHz 3.00 GHz (4 cores) 32 GB memory and 2 TB disk space but I can't install Windows 11 to just try it out because it doesn't support Xeon processors. That seems kind of ridiculous. Why is an advanced CPU like a 3.00 Ghz Xeon not supported?

 

Windows 11 CPU not supported but meeting minimum requirements

Hi,

maybe noone can have an easy answer here, but i'd like to know why the CPU I have on a tiny and maybe a bit old computer, an Intel Celeron J1900, which is a quad core CPU running at 2.0GHz is not supported by Windows 11 installer if the minimum CPU requirements to run Windows 11 are a 1.0GHz dual core CPU. And well, looking at the list, I'm pretty sure there are more CPUs in the same state, meeting the requirements, but not on the list, so unable to install Windows 11, even if Windows 10 runs perfectly and most probably Windows 11 will too.

Regards.
