Ugh, so mad. Trying to upgrade to Win 11 for ages. My PC runs fine! It’s got this Intel Pentium G4560 thing.

The checker just says “This PC doesn’t meet the minimum system requirements.” The main dealbreaker is “Processor not supported.” Seriously? It’s a CPU from like 2017, not a potato.

I went into the BIOS (a nightmare) and enabled "PTT" which everything says IS the TPM. Re-ran the check... same stupid error ...

**Subject: Can NOT get Win11 to install!!**

So my PC meets all the other requirements but I keep hitting a wall. I have an AMD FX-8350, which I know is old, but come on. The installer just says “This PC doesn’t meet the minimum system requirements” and the PC Health Check app highlights “**Security ...
