Looking for advice on Motherboard & CPU upgrade
My Father-in-law has given me his old PC, which is better than my current one.

Last week I bought had 8GB more RAM and newer 1TB SSD
I want to install windows 11 pro.
I don't need a high-end gaming PC, 90% of the time admin work and some video editing.
I'd like to keep the DDR3 Ram & New SSD I purchased last week for it.
Is there a newer Windows 11 compatible motherboard and CPU that I could install and keep DDR3 ram and current drives.
Windows 11 Health check fails:
1. PC must support secure boot
2. TPM 2.0 must be supported
3. Processor isn't currently supported

Thanks
Paul
 
If you use Rufus to create a Windows 11 Installation media, you can remove the "artificial" requirements that were added to Windows 11

Thank you Armageus, I'll have a look at this now! Much appreciated
 
Yeah the 2600k was
An overclocking legend with 5ghz possible
All those years ago

As said rufus at the end of making
Your usb
Has the options you need
Not used rufus for a while so don't know
If any other options have been added
But other issue you may face is no wifi/ethernet during installation
With older hardware
Actually built brand new pc the other day
And still had this problem because windows 11 doesn't offer
Creating a local account during set up now
Had to use shift +f10 to bypass the OOBE before I could
Install windows 11 by making a local account
 
Thanks for confirming it guys
I could have just gone and tried rufus
But I normally use ventoy
That way i can just drag and drop all my isos
For windows and for PE tools etc
Onto 1 flash drive
And was faster just to shift+f10 anyway
