      Hi, can you please confirm Bluetooth is still working after fresh install with windows11, I have Bluetooth issue where icon was missing in task bar and device manager. I checked for installing drivers but didn't worked out. Please check and let me know if it is working.
      My laptop model:Lenovo ThinkPad T540p

    It worked. One caution. If reinstall ever needed do it this way by start up to USB, to erasing the drive, fresh install
    Because I found out if you use the Windows settings, recovery/reinstall 11 through net option, 11 is installed, but updates fail. Says no updates to Match your edition.

    Very impressive. That's very smart way. I do have 2 concerns:
    First: you bypassed the MS security check, would this make it vulnerable to security breach?
    Second: Would there be any problem in downloading all the drivers needed?

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Рік тому +1

      It should not be more vulnerable than a comparable W10 system. You can download the drivers without any problems.

    Wow! That's so simple. I don't want to do it now but thinking about Win10 support ending in Oct 2025 because I was thinking of buying another $75 T530 to get some things done now, but I was wondering if better to put that $75 that towards some Gen 8 model. But, hey, the Gen 8 should be more that $75 cheaper in two years.... so, I dunno... Will decide later.

    nice video - what is the advantage of going from win10 to win11 if you bypass TPM and still won't get security updates? or do you?

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  18 днів тому

      Computers I did this on were still getting updates. No way for me to know if all of them, but at least some for sure.
      Statement from Microsoft "Devices that do not meet these system requirements will no longer be guaranteed to receive updates, including but not limited to security updates."
      So, it's up to you. If you don't need W11, then stay on W10.

    Can you explain how the windows activation worked? I am confused because it appears you have deleted the windows 10 installation. I have a similar laptop (with hybrid SSD) with a valid windows 10 installation but I do not understand how 11 knew to activate when the windows 10 was deleted. Thank you.

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Рік тому +1

      W10 and W11 activation is done online trough Microsoft servers . Your pc gets recognised trough some markers, motherboard info being the most important. If you change motherboard you lose activation and need to call Microsoft to activate online.

    Ce bine ca esti roman! Trebuie sa avem un mic "sit-down" pe tema asta.
    Apreciez faptul ca ai dezbatut si tema "driverelor", dar laptopul tau are si drivere pentru Windows 10. Intrebarea mea ar fi "Ce te faci daca laptopul are drivere doar pana la Windows 8.1?" Poti folosi acele drivere ca sa folosesti Windows 11? Daca acele drivere nu sunt bune, iar dupa cum vad Windows Update nu garanteaza ca iti va gasi driverele potrivite pentru sistemul tau, poti folosi un program precum "Driver Easy" ca sa faci rost de drivere? Adica, iti va gasi?
    Sa iti dau un exemplu. Eu am un Lenovo G500 cu procesorul Pentium Dual Core de 2.2 GHz, iar oficial site-ul Lenovo ofera drivere doar pana la Windows 8.1. Am si discul la el, care are driverele pentru Windows 8. El a venit cu 4GB RAM si i-am facut upgrade la 8GB Acesta ar suporta Windows 11?
    Multumesc! Ti-as da funda, daca as putea, dar nu e tpu.ro aici. 😅

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Рік тому

      Salut. Din experienta mea majoritatea driverelor inclusiv de la W7 merg si pe W10 si W11. Daca ai de W8 cu atat mai mult nu ar trebui sa ai nici o problema. Dar, din pacate asta nu e stiinta exacta, deci o sa vezi doar dupa ce incerci. Si in cazul extrem, in care nu exista driver fix pentru laptop-ul tau la vreun anumit device, gasesti de la altele: ua-cam.com/video/E3S4zvpaipU/v-deo.html

      @@UltimateDIY Salutari! Am un update; consider ca e important de stiut. Am instalat Windows 10 pe laptopul meu Lenovo G500. Totul pare sa meargă bine pana la Placa Video Dedicata (AMD Radeon HD8570M). Driverul care vine cu Windows Update pentru placa dedicata nu ii permite sa funcționeze, ea apărând cu Eroare 43 în Device Manager. Am încercat cu Driver-ul de Windows 8.1 și iata rezultatul:
      - Eroarea 43 a dispărut? => Da
      - Softul AMD Catalist recunoaște placa drept instalată? => Da
      - Placa dedicata este recunoscuta de sistem? => Nu
      Practic ea figurează ca instalată și chiar și GPU-Z o detectează, dar programele/jocurile care ar trebui efectiv sa se folosească de ea nu știu de existenta ei. Nici cu Switchable graphics nu poți forța sistemul sa lucreze cu placa dedicata. Windows 10 chiar are acele "Setări grafice", care iti permit sa alegi din Windows cu ce placa sa ruleze programele. Acolo am observat ca, indiferent dacă alegi economisire baterie sau performanta înaltă, iti oferă doar placa integrată Intel drept opțiune. Atunci mi-am dat seama ca sistemul habar n-are de existenta plăcii AMD. De asemenea lag-ul îngrozitor de la niște titluri vechi EA de la mijlocul anilor 2000 mi-a tras un semnal de alarma.
      Am încercat tot felul de drivere și singurele care nu dau eroare sunt cele de Win 7 sau 8.1, dar rezultatul este cel descris deasupra. Practic, prin upgrade la Windows 10, puterea grafica a laptopului nu mai poate fi exploatata. M-a dus la concluzia ca laptopul e o cauza pierdută în ceea ce privește folosirea lui cu Windows. Windows 7 merge, dar are limitări de funcționalitate, iar Windows 8.1, desi are suport full pentru drivere, înceteaza sa mai fie suportat și chiar programele încetează sa mai funcționeze pe el.
      Singura varianta mai rămâne Linux, si nu mi-am dorit sa se ajungă la asta, deoarece compatibilitatea cu titlurile disponibile doar pe Windows este precară sau inexistenta. Practic laptopul devine doar stație de lucru și atât, la gaming ciuciu. Asta e prostia sau lenea celor de la Lenovo, care au lansat laptopul cu doar 2 ani înainte de apariția Windows 10 și nu le-a pasat sa creeze drivere compatibile cu Windows 10, măcar cu Windows 10!
      Atat am avut de spus, ca sa știe toți care au acest laptop sa nu-și bată capul cu Windows 10 sau 11, ca nu merita. Linux ar părea singura varianta, și nici măcar ala nu știu dacă merge, ca nu l-am testat. Probabil o voi face în viitor, ca oricum nu am de ales, și voi comunica ce am aflat.
      În încheiere aș recomanda evitarea laptop-urilor cu placi dedicate AMD. Softul de la AMD este putin spus "dezamăgitor". Și chiar am acum dubii în privința seriozității brandului Lenovo, pe care încep sa nu îl mai consider demn de a duce mai departe legacy-ul IBM.
