My processor is a TPM 2.0 chip, yet it shows as unsupported on Windows 11.
You're experiencing a conflict between two different system checks. The TPM version information indicates your CPU supports TPM 2.0, which is required for Windows 11. However, the PC Health Check flags it as unsupported. This could be due to outdated BIOS settings, driver issues, or compatibility problems with newer Windows versions. Consider updating your BIOS, reinstalling drivers, or checking for firmware updates from AMD or Intel.
Your processor isn't compatible. The i5 4210U isn't supported on Windows 11.
It doesn't quite fit the expected setup. Since it's still an x86 processor, Windows should work fine. However, Microsoft mandates specific CPU capabilities for security, which older chips lack. For some processors, the limit is also somewhat vague—it seems more about Microsoft not wanting to support them than Windows being unable to run.
My CPU isn't compatible with Windows 11 and I'm using Windows 11 Pro. I have an Intel Core i7 6850K on an ASUS x99 Deluxe II board with a TPM-M R2.0 14-1 module. Secure Boot works well, and updates are functioning normally since the upgrade to Windows 11 on October 5th. The only step was installing via USB as a fresh install.
Exactly. That's the method, attempted to improve by modifying the install disk for unsupported hardware, yet it appears a fresh installation is necessary. Stay calm. Eventually, you might stop receiving Windows updates. Also, I haven't checked this thoroughly, but "no updates" could imply missing larger updates and driver adjustments. It's just my assumption. Let me know if you're right.
In reality you're right, according to the discussions from most online presenters and journalists... I sense that with my present setup, I can sustain success for another year or so on Windows 11. I recall facing similar challenges with my AMD Athlon64 x2 4400 / ASUS A8V Deluxe board. ... Windows 8 x64 functioned well for a long time with that configuration, but once Windows 8.1 x64 arrived the processor became unsupported and stopped working. That prompted an upgrade to an Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme qx 9650 based system, which I’m considering for an Intel Core i9 9900x or even a 10 900x model already... or I hope Sapphire Rapids will release something soon. For now my Broadwell-E system will help me reach that point, with still plenty of room to grow...
