This. Yeah, that's exactly it—check your motherboard manufacturer's site for a BIOS update that enables TPM 2.0.

Also, you might need to specifically enable "Intel Platform Trust Technology" in the BIOS after updating.

Yeah, that's the issue—Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0, and your CPU only supports 1.2, so you'll need to check if a firmware update is even possible.

Agreed. You could also try a clean install using the official ISO and bypassing the TPM check, though that's not officially supported. Another option is just sticking with Windows 10, which is still getting security updates for a while.
