Solved How do get past the Windows 11 CPU Requirement?


Unfortunately, I could not get this bypassed on a PC with Intel i5-7500 CPU using the latest Rufus hack. The computer was stuck on a black screen forever. no error message and no graphics at all, strange!

Take it from an old scarred Windows and iMac user. If your computer doesn't meet the requirements, just stay with your current operating system and windows version. It will be a long time before Microsoft stops supporting Windows 10. Enjoy what you have:)

Steve,

I should also have said:

Please don't feel that you have to upgrade [until 2025 when Windows 10 support ends].
- I only did so because I wanted a testbed to experiment with and am not upgrading any of my main computers until I have to.
- I've run Windows 10 on computers that had originally had Windows XP & Windows 7. I don't see anything wrong with upgrading an OS as long as you are doing it for a good reason and are prepared to deal with difficulties as they arise. In the Nineties we had people telling everybody else not to upgrade to DOS 5.0 without providing any objective explanation of why they shouldn't.

While I kind of agree I still think each user should be allowed to choose what to do with their devices. I can tell them it's not the best idea to force the upgrade but then I will direct them to the way to get it done.

Agreed. So long as you go in with both eyes open, realizing that you could have potential issues due to being in an unsupported state, that should be a choice left up to you.

I just successfully installed 11 on a machine overnight that is 11 years old, has no UEFI firmware, no TPM, and a CPU made 11 years ago. So far it's running great. Only issue is that the fingerprint sensor does not seem to work with Win 11. I can live with that :)

You will see this new feature if you select a Windows 11 ISO (which Rufus can also conveniently download through its split SELECT/DOWNLOAD button), as the Image option dropdown will list the following options:
  • Standard Windows 11 Installation (TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, 8GB+ RAM)
  • Extended Windows 11 Installation (no TPM/no Secure Boot/8GB- RAM)
If you choose the second option, Rufus will edit the relevant registry hive from sources\boot.wim and create the relevant BypassTPMCheck, BypassSecureBootCheck and BypassRAMCheck keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig, that allow to bypass the installation restrictions.

Is it possible to make it so that it only bypasses the TPM-check, but not Secure Boot?

11 years old! Wow.. I love it. :thumbsup:I totally agree with you.. it's not up to me or anyone to tell you what to do. While I can give advice that's as far as it goes for me,. at least.

Fingerprint sensors are like special keys on a Keyboard, they are totally reliant on the manufacturer of the device to continue with the provision of Drivers for each New OS as it's released.

This issue is one of the reasons that I extensively use and recommend LogiTech hardware - they have been around a long time and still support older devices - useful as the hardware is hard wearing to the extreme

Hi,
Secure boot is pretty docile feature I wouldn't worry about singling it out
Just disable all checks the os will figure out the rest.

Is it possible to make it so that it only bypasses the TPM-check, but not Secure Boot?
Sure, just apply the appropriate registry key, not all of them.

BTW, you don't need Rufus for this. As an example, assume you are performing a clean install. Create your boot media and then just drop a .reg file onto your media that contains the following lines:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig]
"BypassTPMCheck"=dword:00000001
"BypassSecureBootCheck"=dword:00000001
"BypassRAMCheck"=dword:00000001
"BypassStorageCheck"=dword:00000001
"BypassCPUCheck"=dword:00000001


Boot from your install media and start setup. When you get the message that Windows is not supported on your hardware, hit the back button to go back one screen. Press Shift + F10 to open a command prompt. At the command prompt type "regedit". Import the .reg file that contains the above lines. Close regedit and the command prompt. You can now continue your installation.

I just used this procedure to install on an 11 year old laptop with no UEFI, no TPM, and an 11 year old CPU.

EDIT: It is worth noting that there is also a completely separate registry key to bypass the TPM 2.0 and CPU requirements (I believe that you still need TPM 1.2 with this particular setting):

Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup
Name: AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1

I have an HP Pavilion x360 15 Notebook computer, and I can't install Windows 11 because my CPU isn't supported. How can I bypass the CPU requirement?

Quite ridiculous!
Hi there. I've just installed it on the HP Spectre X360 13 (5th gen CPU). I used the rufus method mentioned above. It was very quick and easy and worked well. You download the Windows 11 ISO from microsoft (the media creation tool version which is the second option on the microsoft download page) onto another computer. So you have the ISO on one computer. You install rufus beta 2 on the same computer and then Rufus installs the iso onto an 8gb (or higher) usb stick. What it does, during that process - is remove the warnings about tpm2 and secure boot and processor suitability etc. Because it will run. I've just installed it on a 10" netbook. Then install from the usb.

The only difficulty I had installing was - it couldn't find my wifi network. (Presumably no wifi driver at that stage), but it would find mobile wifi so I set my phone as a wifi hotspot and connected to that to install. All installed fine after that (albeit with no graphics driver at first).

Once installed, Windows update did a couple of updates, found the graphics driver and wifi was working. Running great.

I used the instructions in this article, to use the Rufus method. There are other methods people have used on here as well but I this one worked fine and was quick and easy (it also allowed me to make a usb for legacy bios as well as for uefi bios).

IF Windows stops giving updates out to older/unsupported computers then that could be an issue - but at the moment that doesn't seem to be the case.

The second link is to the rufus downloads. It's the beta 2 one.

Unfortunately, I could not get this bypassed on a PC with Intel i5-7500 CPU using the latest Rufus hack. The computer was stuck on a black screen forever. no error message and no graphics at all, strange!
Hm. Maybe no graphics driver. Or - when you did the rufus usb stick there are two options - one for GPT one for MBR - if your laptop has legacy bios then you need to select MBR in the drop down list. I made one of each. The uefi one was fine for my 5th gen core i7. But I used the legacy bios one on a netbook :-) And that installed fine.

EDIT: It is worth noting that there is also a completely separate registry key to bypass the TPM 2.0 and CPU requirements (I believe that you still need TPM 1.2 with this particular setting):

Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup
Name: AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1

With this registry entry I could successfully Upgare a PC with i5-7500, and it runs well

But - is there also a known registry value for too less disk space?
My W10 Tablet has only a 58 Gb fixed built in SSD.
More than 50% free space now, this should be enough for an Upgarde to 11

Maybe this will work:

Name: BypassStorageCheck
Type: REG_DWORD

I installed windows 11 pro using this method on my Asus z170 MB. No issues and I get all the windows 11 updates, The windows 11 PC health check still says my system doesn't support windows 11 LOL???
Actually, it's saying that your CPU isn't supported by Windows 11. Quite a different thing when it comes to future problems you may encounter.

No problems so far. All 3d mark benchmarks running at the same speeds as windows 10. All hardware drivers updated successfully and windows 11 updates continue. Guess we will see if that continues.
