Windows Issue
Right now I’m unable to run or download most games. I’m still using Windows 10 because it indicates I don’t meet the requirements—your device is missing essential security and quality updates. It frequently attempts to update but often cancels and restarts, undoing the changes. I’m considering a clean install to Windows 11 since it seems like a solid starting point. Could this affect my setup? I’m also facing challenges identifying the necessary drivers and software, with websites presenting numerous options without clear guidance.
My system specs include:
- AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, 3.6 GHz, 8-core processor
- Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (Wi-Fi), ATX, AM4 motherboard
- Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 32GB DDR4 3600MHz (2 x 16GB)
- Samsung 970 Evo Plus, NVIDIA Founders Edition GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Corsair RM750 (2019), 750W, 80+ Gold certified
- Fully modular ATX power supply from Corsair
I understand this might seem complicated, but I’m finding it tough and would really appreciate any assistance. Thanks!
Could you explain a bit more? Why is it that you are not able to run or download most games? What is stopping you? You don't need Windows 11 to run video games. Most video games work perfectly fine on Windows 10. As for the upgrade to Windows 11. A quick glance makes me believe your hardware is supported. When you run the Windows 11 upgrade advisor, it will tell you what it is wrong. You might have to enable TPM in your system Bios. But other then that. You should be good. If you have trouble. You could share a screenshot of the results of the upgrade advisor.
Install windows cleanly by following the manufacturer's support guide. For your motherboard, visit the official page: https://www.asus.com/ca-en/motherboards-..._download/. You only need the chipset and LAN/Wi-Fi components. Optional additions are fine, but install drivers only if you actually use them. Graphis drivers work directly on nvidia.com, while the rest should be handled via Windows updates. Avoid websites promising full driver updates—they’re unreliable.
Hey! It looks like your Windows 10 files might need some updates or fixes. The system is showing errors about missing security and quality improvements, which can cause problems when downloading games. It seems like CSGO is the only game that works after installation, while others freeze or get stuck. I’ve tried troubleshooting a lot, but it’s still unclear what’s causing the issue. You might want to check for updates, run a system scan, or consider a clean PC setup if the problem persists.
