What is in the tutorial Find out if you can install Windows 11 on your PC

Find out if you can install Windows 11 on your computer. Windows 11 has special installation requirements and there is no point in downloading Windows 11 if you can't install it.

I will present an application with which you can detect if your computer is compatible with Windows 11.

The application is called Computer Integrity Control and is located on Windows 11 page from the official Microsoft website at the bottom.

Hardware requirements for installing Windows 11

The minimum hardware requirements that a computer must meet, on which you want to install Windows 11, are not so great, instead it is a "little" that only newer PCs have: TPM 2.0

Official page Windows 11

Minimum Windows 11 hardware requirements:
Processor:1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with 2 or more cores per 64-bit compatible processor or chip system (SoC)
RAM:4 gigabytes (GB)
Storage:64 GB or more storage Note: For more details, see the "More information about storage required to keep your Windows 11 up-to-date" section below.
System firmware:UEFI capability, Secure boot
TPMs:Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 version
Graphics card:Compatible with DirectX 12 or later with the WDDM 2.0 driver
Display:High definition display (720p) with a diagonal greater than 9 ”, 8 bits per color channel
Internet connection and Microsoft accounts: The Windows 11 Home edition requires internet connectivity and a Microsoft account to complete device setup on first use. Switching a device from Windows 11 Home to S mode also requires internet connectivity. Learn more about S mode here.For all editions of Windows 11, internet connectivity is required to perform updates and to download and take advantage of certain features.

You don't have TMP 2.0, you can't install Windows 11!

Although the hardware requirements, ie processing power, RAM, storage, etc., are not too high, it is this TPM 2.0 that does not allow old computers to run the new Windows 10.

Some would say that TMP 2.0 is a move that encourages sales of new PCs, others that it is to increase security. Whatever the reason, the new Windows 11 will cost you money if you want to install it directly on your PC.

  1. I greet you with respect and respect Mr. Cristian, I have been following you since 2009 and I can say that I have learned a lot from you on which I want to thank you.
    My question is this.
    I meet ALL the REQUIREMENTS, I have TPM, I have secure BOOT and UEFI mode, but my processor (i7-6700K CPU) does not appear at least for now as supported although I have everything I need, do you have any idea if it will work? thanks a lot!

    Hi Cristi, or the simpler option to find out if we have TPM 2.0. would be Windows + R and write the command tpm.msc

  3. catalin said

    With pleasure, in the first phase my PC was not compatible either, but I activated TPM from the BIOS.
    AMD fTPM configuration / Firmware TPM. Maybe do a tutorial in the future for those who have encountered this problem.

    • #catalin what is the BIOS activation path of fTPM on your AMD motherboard? What model of motherboard do you have?

      • catalin said

        Hi Alex, well I have an ASUS ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING. The BIOS path to me these:
        Advanced / AMD fTPM configuration / TPM Device Selection and here you set the TPM Firmware.
        About the way I don't know what to say… I don't need one. But yes, you can connect one to the motherboard.

        • thank you catalin, it's the same with me. I searched more carefully and found how it activates.
          I ran the application to check the compatibility with Windows 11 again and now it says that all the conditions are met.

          • Robert said

            Where did you find the running application to see if the PC is compatible with windows 11? It's not on Microsoft's Windows 11 site.

  4. I have an Asus Dark Hero motherboard with AMD X570 chipset, which appeared on the market about 1 year ago and costs a lot. Unfortunately it does not have an integrated TPM chipset, it has a connector for the separate mode. I'm curious about the reaction of motherboard manufacturers. This claim of the existence of the TPM module is quite limiting.

    • I looked more closely at the motherboard BIOS and found how to enable TPM. The board supports both hardware and firmware TPM mode. My hardware was set and due to the lack of a separate mode it didn't work. I entered the BIOS - Advanced - AMD fTPM configuration - TPM Device Selection - Discrete TPM / Firmware TPM - and I chose Firmware TPM.
      I ran the application to check the compatibility with Windows 11 again and now it says that all the conditions are met.

    Howdy. Thanks so much for the tutorial.
    I checked on a 9-year-old PC, namely the HP G62. It tells me that everything is ok except for "Secure Boot" (it doesn't have this option). What to do? Is there an option? Thanks in advance.

  6. I have activated TPM on the asus z170 pro gaming motherboard and it still does not meet the conditions. I have an intel6400 generation 6.Windows 11 processor only accepts processors from generation 8 onwards.

    For me, after launching the command in RUN - tpm.msc, the following appears to me: Compatible Trusted Platform Module (TPM) cannot be found on this computer. Verify that this computer has a 1.2 TPM or later and it is turned on in this BIOS. I searched in the BIOS but found nothing. Is it possible that I didn't search well or my laptop doesn't have this TPM? I have had the laptop since 2014. As a configuration: Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB memory, Samsung 256GB SSD, NVidia GForce 820M video card - 2GB.

    • catalin said

      Carefully scroll through each menu in the BIOS if you do not find the TPM setting. For computers with Intel processors, TPM can be displayed as PTT (Platform Trust Technology) in the BIOS.

  8. I think the "boys" will decide not to ask for any more TPM

  9. It is already a solution to stop asking for this TPM and it really shows that it works. If you search the net you will find but I don't know how reliable it is. There are motherboards that do not have this TPM, it does not appear in the bios, it does not appear in PTT as some say for intel and it does not appear for AMD either. If they don't have this TPM then what to do?

  10. It goes installed on a system with tpm and then moved ssd to pc that does not have tpm.
