I'm assuming you did a "clean install". I've clean installed Windows 11 on numerous incompatible computers (without having to jump through any hoops) and it has worked every time.

Just Look at my Clean but added the hack to allow any PC to install WiN11 LINK

All I did was create USB with RuFus then extracted and used IMGBURN to created a bootable IMAGE
