USB Installer For Windows 11 Unsupported PCs
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 гру 2023
- I have always thought that the Rufus Method or installing Windows 11 on Unsupported PCs was only for fresh installs and didn't work on upgrades. It turns out I was wrong. It seems to work fine for upgrades. I was planning on making a video on how to do a fresh install of Windows 11 on unsupported PCs but I ended up making a video on how to create a USB drive that will install or upgrade any system to Windows 11.

Rufus is one of the first tools I install on my PCs over the years. I love Rufus. It's simple & easy to use, and a great utility.
@9:15 - Rufus does have a dual-boot mode,

Great video and thank you for sharing @CyberCPU
Here the last two times I did a full clean install of Windows 10 and 11 I did it via the CLI method. I personally prefer only having two partitions on the drive rather than the 4 the normal installer creatures.
I normally do the first partition as the EFI partition and the second partition is the primary that Windows 10/11 gets imaged onto with the DISM tool.
I have tried several methods to get windows 11 on my computer none worked until I found your video and it worked first shot so I'm glad you showed us how How to use Rufus thank you very much.
Thanks so much, not only for this video but your channel in general.
If you want windows 11 with out bloatware, do this. On a fresh install, choose the language on the first screen to English World, then after installation change the region back to US in settings. Also to avoid signing into microsoft, just choose sign into work or school, then when asked about signing into MS, choose sign in options choose to join a domain then create a local account.
Your videos are fantastic and are incredibly helpful! Thanks for making these!
Very useful. It would be interesting to check in on how Tiny11 is coming along and to see just how low spec a PC it will run on in a reasonably comfortable manner.
Great stuff! I have a Samsung RV510 Celeron Dual-Core T3500, 2.10 GHz with 4GB Ram with legacy bios. It was natively running Windows 7, then Windows 10 and now thanks to this and Rufus it’s running Windows 11. The only issue I have experienced on both 10 & 11 is graphics tearing is Asphalt 8. Other than that it is playable with hardly any stutter. I’ve yet to try video and photo editing. Thanks Cyber dude 🙂
Thank you very much, I was looking for a few month gow to upgrade "my potato" to Windows 11.
This new method is so easy it's really dummy proof.
Nice video bro.. Rufus and Ventoy rules..😂 btw I'm contributing to Rufus some months back and dev there is doing a great job. Some day make a video for Atlas project or and MicroWin debloat tool. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas to all 🎄
Excellent
Thanks for this! I turned my old gaming PC, which doesn't have a TPM chip, into a home lab server. Using Rufus I was able to install Windows 11 as a VM on Proxmox. Amazing!
Great video ...thank you. I'm not sure if this will upgrade Windows 10 pro to Windows 11 pro. You only mentioned an upgrade before going on to creating the USB with Rufus.
Awesome! Going to let Rufus prep a USB then take an image of it and add it to my Ventoy drive.
ventoy will use iso's directly no need for any other formats
Best in E-tech information❤
I have Windows 11 running on a Lenovo T420 laptop that's 12 years old with no issues so far. I had to go the Win10 upgrade route, and it went pretty smooth! I used Rufus to get the ISO.
Interesting! Fully updated with the lastest 23H2 and it’s updates?!?
Yes! And it has continued to get regular updates in terms of security and performance. As pointed out on this video, you may not get the feature updates, however you can always download the latest ISO and manually perform the update as a standalone process. In other words, if the next update is 24H2, you can download that ISO and run it as an update instead of a full install. @@StriderRyu7
Everything transferred over, no issues?
@@kestonoltman8118 Yes. Basically I followed the instructions from this channel shown on an earlier video
ua-cam.com/video/899NmXHK3WE/v-deo.html
Don't know if someone already commented this, but if you don't get the option when running Rufus to select automatic updates, or you hit no you can change the options from the settings icon down in the left hand corner. Once changed just restart Rufus and you will have the option to download.
Thank you for this Video! Thanks to this and your detailed explanation I was able to breathe new life into my Surface Pro 3! Definitely subscribing so I can see more of your videos! Keep up the great work!
watched your video an hour later im running windows 11 you ROCK
Thank you so much. It works like a charm for me !
DUDE !!!!
First Making your own Tiny Windows 11
and now a USB Installer for Unsupported PC 's ???
I love it when we make MS look like the liars they are.
You just earned my sub !
Thank you for posting your, this is very informative. I bought a dell optiplex on eBay and I was confused that it came with win 11 installed even though it had a 6th gen intel CPU. I kept trying to get 23H2 by updating it and it would never download, now I know why! Thank you!
Rufus / Ventoy .... So hard to decide!
Happy Holidays Everyone & A Happy New Year!
I Just Called To Say, I Love You..... Thank you for the VERY informative and helpful video. As well as the many others you have created. Thank you.
Hi Rich, Can you help me solve this issue?
"Windows server Installation has failed" Error
This happens when i almost install the windows 11 and then goes back at the home screen and shows that error i mentioned before. Can you make a video to solve this issue?
I would appreciate your help!
microsoft needs to give up on the hardware requirements for the regular user. there are so many systems that are still in great working order. that do not need to be upgrade. and some people don't have the money to but a new computer. there should be a version of windows for places that deal with private info. such as medical, banks, etc. that need to be able to keep people info such as SSN, Credit/debt Card info, home addresses, hippa related medical info, etc. from being hacked. these computers should have strict hardware built in. makes the most sense. but the regualr user have no need most of the time for a lot of this stuff.
Thanks bro - I just upgraded my Dell Precision T5810 from Windows 10 to Windows 11 (23H2) using Rufus after failing to get it to upgrade using other methods. This is a UEFI enabled machine with 64GB memory so well able to run Windows 11. It has a MB equipped with an LGA2011-v3 socket and is equipped with a Xeon E5-2678 v3 processor which munches everything I need it to! 😂 It is a Q3 2015 processor but very able to run many CAD products etc. I also have a Dell Precision T5820 machine which is a bit newer with a FCLGA2066 socket with a Xeon W 2145 processor (Q4 2017) and is already running Windows 11. Hope this information helps a few folks with older Dell Precision machines which are very well designed. 👍
worked like a charm...
Congratulations !!
Yes, I have upgraded 3 unsupported laptops to Windows 11 with Rufus. Then I upgraded them to 23H2 from the desktop using Rufus & kept everything.
any fps drop in gaming?
@@BanterBossofficial I don't play games. But people who do say no. Everything works fine.
i like M.2 storage for my primary drive. i have not yet installed windows 11 yet. my mother have secure boot and tpm 2.0 inside bios. My Mobo Asus Z370 Tuf Gaming Plus, 16GB of Ram, Asus Strix GTX 1060 OC 6GB GPU and old Intel i3 8th Gen 8100 3.6 GHz.
can i install windows 11 on my pc or just stick with what i have with Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC version ?
In Explorer on W 11, the left sidebar has a list of folders. Some are pined others are default. How do I make sure that Desktop is not pointing to the OneDrive folder in users. I have found that MS has saved a lot of my file in OneDrive. I have since signed out of OneDrive, however, the OS continues to use the OneDrive folder. All of the other pin to folders have replaced the previous OS folder. Confusion is the best description of the situation. Maybe there is a way to reset all folders in Explore?
Is it a problem that when downloading from Rufus, it pre-selects the MBR partition scheme and you can't change it, but when you talk about downloading direct from Windows, you say how important it is to select the right option?
Now is there a way to edit a 23H2 iso for use with a Virtualbox clean install of 11 without having to make a USB or pre-install Win 10?
Do you think this will work on a Sony vaio t series laptop? I have i3 core, 64gb, 4 gb ram? I’m running windows10 home now. But my Sony vaio originally came with windows 8 on it!!
I have the HP Envy x360 Model# M15-CP0011DX
All things taken into account, the only issue with my laptop that is unsupported is my processor.
- AMD Ryzen 5 2500U: It is a quad core, 8 thread processor and windows 10 currently has no issues while running
I also have 16 gigs of ram and a 2TB SSD
Before I attempt to install Windows 11 on my machine, would you recommend it? I feel like based on what you said in the video it would work, but a simple nod from you would make me feel better about trying it
thanks! i love installing windows 11 22h2 and 23h2 64bit on old potato computers. it works great with 8 GB or more RAM..
thanks...wasn't aware of that
Is this video about upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11?
My PC is a Windows 10 machine but says 22H2 and fails the CPU requirement.
Can I use Rufus to upgrade it?
Well I didn't get an answer to this so I tested it out on a Dell XPS running Windows 10 22H2 and it worked perfect.
I just used the USB drive created following the steps from this video. Because I wanted an upgrade to Windows 11 22H2, I did NOT boot off the USB drive but instead ran the setup.exe file by right clicking and choosing 'Run As Administrator'. Windows 11 installed seamlessly. Rufus is the way to go!
how is the security and virus protection on unsupported hardware ? is it just as unsafe as windows 7? im upgrading my old Phenom computer from windows 7 because im worried about the security. hoping windows 11 (as unsupported) is still going to be much more secure
Can you make a tutorial how we can bypass win 11 installation assistant program because I use tiny 11 and I'm scared of using normal win 11 because I might not get the audio drivers and can't install them
Thank you ❤
Rufus has been around forever, seems to work ok, the only problem its not completely plug n play, u have to set the options correctly and it depends on what computer ur going to use it for. Try to avoid upgrading windows if u can help it, its better to clean install for reliability and security, cause when u upgrade theres no way to truly know if MS is leaving stuff behind from ur old version to fingerprint u, plus u cannot garantee that all malware is gone if u dont do a clean install. While ur there with rufus I suggest download a linux distro and make a linux jump drive as well, cause if u just need firefox for a pc to stream netflix u dont need to waste money activating a windows os, keep that key for only your gaming rigs.
i have followed along with you on the video but when i hit select and select my windows11 file it does not let me hit start
I am not geeting the do you want to allow rufus to check option. how do i fix that?
I use Ventoy for my Windows 11 installation needs for unsupported pcs
Hello CyberCPU, Have a question. Have you heard the Microsoft will allow you to stay on Windows 10, But they will charge you for it?
yes, its just like Windows 7, official end of life you can still purchase a yearly subscription up to 3 years probably, price mite be alot but who knows?
Hi, Looks like Microsoft now blocks updates on unsupported hardware. I'm on the Insider Canary channel and windows update won't install previews anymore.
I talked about this in my last video on this topic. Right now it's only in the beta channel and there's no indication on whether or not they're going to do this in the release channel. They might just be testing ways of blocking unsupported hardware and ultimately this never comes down to the release channel.
We'll just have to wait and see what Microsoft does. If they block unsupported hardware then it just gives me an excuse to make more videos about new methods of installing Windows 11 on unsupported hardware. 🤷
UA-cam
Hi,
Thanks for your response. By the way, great channel !!!! I'm very surprised that someone hasn't come up with a workaround. I'm only using my 2 development laptops so it's not that big of a deal, but Microsoft is now acting like Apple.
Very disappointing.
Thanks, again !!!!!

Feature updates worked for me
Has anyone had a Windows 11 install on an unsupported machine and ran into a situation where the PC wont boot or wont run correctly etc. after updates? Wanted to know if its a possibility.
Tell me, will win 11 work well on the laptop hp elitebook 2560p core i5 2540m ~ 2.60 6Gb ram ssd 256, ddr3 Intel hd 3000?
I have a trouble maintaining all my files when I'm going to install windows 11 ... Any ideas of how to fix it?
I love your videos. I’m a big fan and that’s why I know you’re the guy to ask about this, i’ve been using Rufus for a long time now and I have an octopus 160 tiny PC it’s got a 1.6 Adam processor and while I haven’t tried I don’t think it can run windows 11 or 10 I want to use it as a game console but for some reason using Rufus or any method for that matter I can’t install any operating systems on the OptiPlex 160 because it tells me that I’m trying to install a uefi usb but I always choose mbr and bios so it doesn’t make any sense. I’ve even tried using the other option, which is UFI and I get the same response from the computer no matter what I do it’s telling me that the install is Uefi I would like any of the video games ISO’s like batocera or lakka. Do you have any idea what I could be doing wrong? I thought maybe this would even make a great topic for a video because nobody makes videos on these iOS to turn older PCs into video game consoles there’s a few, but none of them talk about the problems that you can encounter. They just show us straightforward installation and I haven’t had any luck using it on any of my computers That I want to use it on an A1 283 Mac mini or an iMac from 2008 hp compaq dc530 with agp graphics, none of them will work. Do you have any idea on what I could be doing wrong? I especially would like to get the dc530 and optiplex 160 to run batocera but at this point I’m starting to think it’s just not gonna happen that’s why I’m asking you! My go to troubleshooting guy! Thanks!
A follow up question for anybody would be the two systems that I mentioned that I want to use the most OptiPlex 160 and dc530, what is the newest operating system that will run reasonably well as in hopefully play UA-cam videos at very least? I have problems installing iOS on them like I explained in the previous question so before I struggle to get us operating system installed that’s not gonna work anyway I was wondering if anybody has the systems with a good iso installed that they could recommend thanks guys
I'm pretty sure the atom processor is only 32 bit. I have a Dell mini 10 that I carry with me in my tech bag that has the same problem. No modern Windows operating system comes in 32-bit anymore. I have to run some bizarre version of Ubuntu on it because it's the only one I could find that was still supported in 32-bit. Unfortunately you need a 64-bit processor for any modern version of Windows.
@@CyberCPU well actually I have a 32 bit version of Windows 10 that I can use but it won’t let me install it. It keeps telling me that I’m trying to install.uefi but I’m not I’m choosing bios mbr it doesn’t make sense. I’ve tried using Rufus in a couple different ways but I don’t even really care about windows I want to put on batocera/lakka but it’s the same thing it’s telling me that it’s a uefi but I would never choose that option, but just to be sure I went back and tried making the USB stick both ways, and no matter what it comes back with the same response pretty soon I’m just gonna strip it down and throw it away I hate like heck to do that but I can’t get it to do anything
🙂Eh Broh, are you doing this because ur in a country that new computers are very expensive OR your intro Retro? I'm here in Chicago and sometimes I experiment with Thrift Store prehistoric computers, what you can try to do is the "Sideload" method, I got Windows 7 to install just fine on ancient pcs and an old mac mini and an old mac pro doing it. But you will need a spare desktop computer to do it, using a spare PC and the ISO jump drive boot it up and start installing Windows to the SSD or Hard Drive, when windows says "Restart" turn off the PC, then open up the PC and transplant the prepared hard drive over to the prehistoric pc, boot up the prehistoric pc and go into bios to tell it to boot up the new hard drive, saves changes, reboot, the old computer should now go thru the bios screen then u should see something when it boots the hard drive, you should see windows coming up saying: Installation continueing.....just wait and let it do its thing, should eventually come up on the Desktop. You can do the exact same method with a linux distro. @@95Comics
@@MrSamadolfo ok ill give it a shot thanks. Oh and nj is in the same country as you i believe lol
I did this method on my potato and ended up with an incomplete File Explorer for some reason. I tried it twice via setup.exe, and both times had the same result. I don't know if it's because I was installing on Legacy or not. I downloaded 2 different ISO's so to make sure it wasn't a corruption issue. Otherwise, the install went fine, but with the heading and tabs bar missing from File Explorer, I had to revert back to W10. Any ideas?
i have u supported pc. and when i finish installing it crashes and give blue screen until i unplug the internet cable .it work , and i can't run cd driver it's not Compatible with w.11 .and can't do it on the internet so any Solution?
How about updating Win 10 64bot Bootcamp to Win 11, using RuFUS?
One question please method of downloading iso fromm microsoft and make bootable usb does affect my apps and data doess this procedure remove my alla apps or data or not?????
does this procedure format the c drive like fresh instalation ??
If you boot from the USB drive then you're going to perform a CLEAN install meaning, C drive is formatted, all apps and data are gone!
If you want to upgrade, just start your windows 10 and double-click that iso file from microsoft, this will mount the ISO file as a drive. Now open a command terminal and change to that new drive, then start setup.exe from the command line like so (assuming the ISO fdrive is D:) : D:/setup.exe /product server
This will upgrade youw Windows 10 on unsupported hardware and you get to keep all data and apps! But make a backup anyway!
backup your files and then do a clean install with the jump drive, then copy back ur personal files when its all done.
I used your "old" method to install windows 11 on an old desktop PC. It was a bit of a challenge because I was having to switch between two PC's, two keyboards and two mice, plus change the monitor to the PC I wanted to view as I followed along with your video, but it DID work! However, when I attempted to make the USB portable version per this video, all went pretty well until I got to the section after I selected MBR and then clicked "Start". I did NOT get any popup window which should have allowed me to bypass the requirements for 4 mb RAM, TPM and the need for a Microsoft account, etc. Instead it immediately began installing the iso on my USB stick. I haven't tried it, but I assume if I do, it will tell me that the PC I am attempting to install it on does not meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11. How can I "fix" this so that I am given those necessary options before writing the iso to my USB drive?
This could have been a 4 min video if this guy wasn't in love with the sound of his own voice.
I got a ROG laptop with windows 10 and it worked perfectly. I eventually upgraded to 11 and had non stop performance problems. I eventually switched to Arch and using qemu i was able to install 11 and for some reason, 11 works perfectly in linux lol.
Your sponsor screwed me over,don’t ever buy keys from them
Just surf the web a little bit. There's lot of options to buy cheap keys. Once I literally bought Win 10 keys for 20 cents. And they worked perfectly. And the funny part is, the second key I kept unused for long was not working. I just contacted the seller and he provided me a new key for free😂
How tho, like the key dindt work
Same here is sucks
If i installed windows 11 on my alienware laptop from 2015, how would i get my drivers cuz alienware only released win 10 drivers for it?
most drivers are available by simply going thru the Windows 11 update process several times, restart, chk, restart, chk. Then using your browser search for websites: Intel Driver & Support Assistant and it will give you a few more drivers, restart and check restart and check. After that open up Device Drivers and see what yellow flags are showing up and hunt them down.
What do you recommend if the system you wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 was a Windows 7 and you didn't want to lose your installed programs and drivers? The computer with Windows 7 is an i7 -4770K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 32GB of Ram 64 bit Operating System?
First upgrade to Windows 10 using standard method
@@adinwashere That is what I did with my windows 7 laptop. I bought a set of keys on line and updated it and I didn't loose any prorams but I did have a problem with some of the USB drivers not working. i am guessing
Windows 10 wanted to install their own which didn't work with my USB devices. I really miss Windows 7. Everything just worked and I was able to pick and choose if I wanted security updates which sometimes caused
more problems then having the security. How long do you really think Windows 10 will be supported? I know what they say but I hope it will be around a lot longer.
@@n1kkri it is anyone's guess if ms will extend the deadline. I agree that Windows 7 was great 😃
I have a full windows 11 installed on a Samsung microsd pro card. Here i thought you all debating ssd's vs hdd's😅 That said, to pull this off. It must be a usb 3 port minimum and the microsd card reader also must be usb 3. Happy Holidays!
Windows 11 - Microsoft really p'ed me off with W11. I was rocking a AMD ThreadRipper with 32 cores and 64 gigabytes of Ram and the TPM 2.0 built in but was still told to old.
Its ok though, I used this method months ago to move up to W11.
Great walkthrough thank you.
My PC has TPM 2.0 and is UEFI, the only thing i lack is a CPU. I am running an AMD Ryzen 7 1700. So my question or questions are, will i get standard updates for Win 11? or will my version be called out when an update occurs? This is my only PC and therefore it's my daily driver. Please help as i am not a fan of Microsoft's BS, but i am a gamer and i also do video recording and editing and i would lose some programs if i switched to Linux. I have been using Windows since 3.1 so yeah.
yeah i got to the end of the video. My system set up is: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 8-core CPU, AMD Radeon RX-580 8GB, 32 GB system RAM, a 4 TB NVMe M.2 SSD. Plus i am currently running Win 10 Home 22H2. So i am curious as to how this would run on my system and would the feature updates just not install? Cause i do not really care about those as long as i get the needed updates.
So! How do I know if my pc is UEFI or not? I have a Ryzen 7, 1700 and Asus TUF b450 gaming II motherboard. 32gb ddr4. I THINK my pc is UEFI, but how do I know? Great video!
I’m currently running win11 (upgraded win10) but now want to do a fresh install, that’s why I came across your video! :)
If upgrading, it is important to choose the language of your current Windows otherwise you will get an "Unable to keep files, apps, and settings during Windows 11 Upgrade" issue during the installation process
How well does this work with virtualbox?
I have i5 4th gen 8 gb of ram and a hdd should I install windows 11?
That "Windows User Experience" menu is not available in Rufus 3.22, the last one to support Window 7.
And here you are in Windows 11, *"OBVIOUSLY"* and unfortunately, using Rufus 4.3. So what am I to do now, find out what came first, the hen or her non-compatible egg?
ventoy is even better if you have large usb drives as you can store multiple operating system installs on it and it has a menu that expands as you add or change the drives contents. Also ventoy only needs the operating system installs in iso format
Ventoy is great. But a patched Image is needed to install windows on unsupported hardware. With ventoy itself and the unmodified win 11 iso you will fail.
🙂 neat, i didnt know that
Ventoy by default also includes the needed patches to install Windows 11 at unsupported hardware.
Ventoy indeed works very well but sometimes can fail booting correctly on certain configurations.
So, having a regular USB available is recommended.
@@Doman2000This means it patches the iso on the fly while installing? Honestly, I don't think so.
I have a work laptop that has years of installed programs that I am preparing to migrate to a new laptop. I have TPM 1.2 and a i7-2630QM and was thinking of tranfering to new PC then running windows 11 upgrade (which is actually already installed on new) but I might just try doing the unsupported upgrade and then migrating (parted magic) the drive to the new laptop. Anyone tried this?
Where is the other video regarding cmd code
I currently run i2700k and windows 10. It's quite slow compared to what it was 10 years ago. Is it a good idea to try to Install windows 11
I installed it on a garbage celeron chip, and 11 was much slower than 10.
@@kestonoltman8118 I already Installed win11 and it's way faster pc than it was 🤷🏻♂️
Excellent video! Can redo this video but ... show how to install a debloated version of Windows 11. Thanks. Unsupported and debloated ... fabulous!
I'm trying to create a win11 iso with ntlite but when i use it on a virtual machine it installs but after restart it's only black screen how can I solve this ?
🙂 black screens could mean the video card is too old or the video card is AMD or you monitor is too old, what it usually means is you can't see the BIOS screen, it mite be up and running but u just can't see it. It could also mean the rufus options are wrong. Could be alot of things.
I believe if you hit alt+F it allows you to do uefi and non uefi install
Great video.. And I have windows 11 running on unsupported hardware as a VM. Just wondering, has anyone had problems running Win11 on unsupported hardware and MS comes along and causes it to stop working?
Безопасная загрузка не является препятствием для использования разметки GPT. Это связано со старыми платами, где не поддерживается UEFI
And once more, in English please.
The author is confusing the concepts of secure boot and GPT partition map. There is really nothing stopping you from disabling secure boot and using GPT, as I do. What really matters is the CSM. If you're using a computer that doesn't have full UEFI support or CSM compatibility mode enabled, it really won't start in GPT. And secure boot only affects whether or not the bios will let an unsigned OS through.@@SucculentSpaz
On an unsupported system, you would not be able to update from 22H2 to 23H2 in Windows Update. You would have to install 23H2 manually.
From scratch?
@@Juliodax I mean you would have to download the 23H2 iso from Microsoft's website
If you make the USB with a 23H2 ISO then that's what will install.
The Windows Subsystem for Android requires an SSD and so does Google Play Games beta for Windows.
What about a NTLite video making a telemetry free OS or as close as possible. Not a normal debloat but removal of all or as much telemetry as possible.
I did a video on NTLite ages ago. However, there's a way better way now. Check out this video.

just use a good firewall, like portmaster, windows firewall is garbage, lets everything microsft and associate partner software straight through
does it work for none compatible CPUs?
I think even worse was the mid-stream Windows 7 (and 8?) suddenly saying newer CPUs weren’t supported and needed upgrading to Windows 10.
BTW, the English (International) install won’t install the normal “adware.”
Will it work with 24H2 I am not sure can you give it a try please.
24H2 isn't out yet. I typically always make another video on unsupported installs when new builds come out. There's not much point in doing it while they are still in beta.
@@CyberCPU Thank you so much for your reply. Love your videos and your sense of humor 👍
Do you offer a email for people to ask questions?
HI I folloved your instructions on my Aspire XC 703 with 1Tb SSD and 8 Gb Ram: I used Win11_23H2_Italian_x64v2.iso and worked sooo smart and as you told us in the video, my old PC now, is much faster then it was with win 10 updated from win 7. I've used the option to preserve all my files and setting and up to now all seems ok no PERFECT; the system downloaded 6/7 upgrades immediately upon restarted included all the security updates... IT WORKSSSS. many many thanks from Italy. Ciao Maurizio
@CyberCPU Tech When you released your video on win11 23H2 two weeks ago, I followed your method to a "T" and made a usb boot drive with the 23H2 ISO. When I ran the usb to install windows 11, everything went great. Until it didn't. After going thru all the motions and I got to the part where I have to restart the PC, it came back on with my original windows 10 settings and a message that said MY SYSTEM WASN'T COMPATIBLE with windows 11. I ran it a second time to make sure I didn't make a mistake. I got the same result. I'm running an Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 with an AMD Phenom(tm) II X3 720 Processor, 2800 Mhz, 3 Core(s), 3 Logical Processor(s) and 16 gigs DDR3 ram. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I can't be the only one this has happened to. Can you do a video on why this is happening?
Try the upgrade procedure offline, without letting Windows search for updates during the setup/upgrade.
For people who have Windows 11 installed on unsupported hardware via Rufus, can you do a video on how to update to 24H2 without loosing files, data, or settings when 24H2 gets released?
I think rufus removed this option. I tried to create USB key today and it didn't prompt me to remove the windows 11 checks
My laptop is not boot in one time stuck on HP logo then I need to forse shut down then I press power botton again then I it open normally what I the problem 😢😢😢😢😢😢
A few years ago I thought an ssd upgrade was unnecessary cuz of how expensive they are and I thought people would say that so that way they would get more money from their links at the bottom of the video and spend more money of a pc or whatever instead of getting a better cpu or what not but ever sense I gave in and bought one I really don’t want to go back to a hard drive as a boot drive I used to use a 5400 2.5 hard drive as my boot drive now I have a wd blue sn570 mvne as my boot drive and it’s really nice I even upgraded my Xbox one to an ssd as well although personally I would think if you’re going to have only 1 ssd at minimum do a sata one cuz really you’d very likely not notice a deference beyond that unless you’re transferring between drives a lot then I would recommend go to the fastest level you can like a usb drive for example if you’re using a usb 3.2 drive that is capable if 6 Gibps then sata should be your max if it’s a 10 Gibps drive so usb 3.2 gen 2 2x2 then gen 3 meme should be your max so on
how different are the ventoy and rufus?
They are both too completely different things. Rufus creates bootable USBs out of ISOa and ventoy allows you to multiboot multiple ISOs. On one USB drive.
tried windows 11 on an old atom and I got bsod at startup (heap corruption), windows 10 does work
Noob question: So I am able to install Win 11. My understanding is it's not free (or is it?). Where does MS come into this process as far as getting a license for Win 11?
i think you'll be able to use a code from previous win ver.. they may have changed that now though
🙂 yes its free, but while its unactivated they punish you, so your stuck with the default desktop wallpaper and every once in a while an anoying watermark in the corner, its a nogo for me, what i do now is only buy a key for my gaming rigs and any other computer I install a linux distro with firefox if im only going to use the browser.
i am install 11 tiny for my old pc and let me see if rufus work
Being unsupported for Win11 is a pretty good feature in my book.
Tried it but the usb device doesn't show in boot menu. Usb is 8GB. Is that OK?
Im also not getting the menu when i hit start
While I agree a regular consumer spinning drive, may be unsuitable, not all spinning drives are unsuitable, for example...if you have a server setup with Saas drives (enterprise hardware) that are 15K drives they will out perform a consumer spinning drive (as you called it) and also out perform an SSD drive. That being said, those drives only work on servers...which would be a spinning drive option!
