I'm still working on this project. I've been away for a few weeks.
The computer is running and everything seems to be working.
All the original components are connected with the new RAM and fan.
The main issue is that I can't install WIN 11 Home version.
I receive an error saying I don't meet the minimum requirements.
I've checked the BIOS, and the motherboard recognizes the CPU, the 970 EVO 500G, and 32GB of RAM.
I'm a bit confused.
I've been online, looked at standard guides, adjusted BIOS settings, etc.
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Ensure secure boot and TPM 2 are active before installing Windows 11. You might also generate a bootable USB using Rufus that instructs the installer to skip these checks and proceed. Verify settings in the BIOS, then create a custom installer with Rufus despite the hassle. If you're using a local profile instead of a Microsoft account, avoid connecting to the network until after creating your account. Additionally, Rufus can generate a local account during the installation process.

I solved it last night and created a Rufus bootable USB drive. Everything worked smoothly and I'm updating WIN 11 right now. Thanks for your assistance.
