Let's install Windows 11 on incompatible hardware


You're lucky that you have the N570, there are no graphics drivers available for my N2600. WU doesn't find any, and every 32-bit W7 one I've tried will BSOD on my x86 install of W10 :(
Could you install Windows 10 64bit on that machine? Apparently N2600 will run 64 bit. And then maybe do a W11 in place upgrade to keep the Windows 10 graphics driver? (That was going to be my next attempt if the vista driver didn't work).

I find it marginally faster than Windows 10 on the netbook actually. It boots quickly, hangs for quite a while at login page, but once open everything is fairly nippy. Youtube videos play fine.

The problem is not installing 64-bit W10, the problem is that there are no suitable graphics drivers for the N2600. All official driver development ended at Win7. Anyway, for a 'take anywhere' web browser its x86 W10 + basic display driver is good enough - even YouTube is watchable, though the frame rate can be a bit low :wink:

Google says n2600 is gma 3150 - same as mine - the N570 also uses GMA 3150. if so then this vista 64 bit one might work. I just downloaded the .exe file and double clicked on it to install and worked well. It wouldn't install via device manager but double clicking on it worked.

Maybe it will, but a 64-bit OS in 2GB RAM feels like it's struggling on this Acer AOD270, while 32-bit (even with the MS Basic driver) is snappy enough for my travelling needs. Every 32-bit driver I have tried (and believe me, I've tried every one I could find) has worked but would BSOD on me, usually as I shut down.

I may try x64 again as an experiment, but for a reliable 'go anywhere' netbook I'm happy enough to keep using 32-bit W10.

Ok- see what you mean. I thought W11 only came in 64 bit anyway - so I just installed it snd used the 64 but vista driver. It works well. To me it runs better than windows 10 did. But only tinkered around with it so far.

Upgrading with the Windows 11 RTM ISO on a well-below spec computer

I wanted a Windows 11 testbed computer so I would not need to experiment with my main computers. The only computer I could spare was a Dell Inspiron 1545 from 2010.
Intel Celeron CPU 900 @ 2.20GHz
RAM 3GB
Display driver Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
I proceeded with this computer despite its clear lack of Windows 11 compatibility.
View attachment 9245


1 I decided to upgrade from Windows 10 by using the downloaded RTM ISO in a Repair install [In-place upgrade] procedure i.e. mounting the ISO then running its setup.exe.
Repair Install Windows 11 with an In-place Upgrade - ElevenForumTutorials
Download Windows 11 - MS
I set Power options beforehand so the monitor would stay on the whole time and I'd be able to glance over to see how it was getting on.

2 Then, while setup.exe was running [it was preparing itself for several minutes after starting], I used File explorer*** to watch its temporary working folders populate [C:\$WINDOWS.~BT] then I deleted
C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll
[thus bypassing compatibility checks]
before then responding to the Ready to install dialog.
*** I might have had to set File explorer to show hidden items but didn't make any note of this at the time.
[File explorer, View menu, Hidden items]
Ready to install.png



3 The installation then ran without incident.
I deliberately chose to skip updating during the installation.

4 This procedure worked. My wildly below spec computer now has Windows 11.
The update took 3 hours on this non-compliant computer but I was happily getting on with work on one of my main computers so I didn't care how long it took.
Windows 10 Home x64 Version 21H2 Build 22000.194 posted.png

Windows 11 Home x64 Version 21H2 Build 22000.194

5 PostScript - Windows update has been running automatically on this computer and has installed updates without any action being taken on my part. See my post #285 on the next page of this thread.



Whilst I have only described using the Repair install / In-place upgrade procedure, some of the other guides about upgrading to Windows 11 include advice about Clean installs as well.
Ways to install Windows 11 - bypass TPM, CPU checks - MSSupport
Windows 11 TPM Requirement Bypass it in 5 Minutes TechPowerUp
How to install Windows 11 without TPM 2.0 - gHacks
Upgrade to Windows 11 - ElevenForumTutorials
Clean Install Windows 11 - ElevenForumTutorials



Good luck with yours,
Denis

Bree - Again, thanks for the compatibility check bypass [my step 1 above].
Thanks for this as it worked on my System 2. I don't recall which screen it was that I stopped at to delete the .dll file but before letting the installer continue on to do the checking. Installed, updated, and working fine. Again, thanks.

I upgraded my old Acer laptop (see my specs) from the Insider's Preview to the official 21H2 release of Windows 11 using the same trick. That is running Setup inside Windows 10 or the earlier Windows 11 build to do an in-place upgrade to the newer build. Before proceeding I deleted the file C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll from setup cache thus bypassing any compatibility check. Upgrade completed successfully and I also run Windows Update and installed all updates without any issue.

on celeron processor install windows 11 ?you get horible performance
Amazing that it is possible to install though and it sounds like a computer just for testing/experimenting. I have it on an atom netbook as well. It works. But take your point - it is only on the laptop with the i7 processor I can see how smoothly it works.

I upgraded my old Acer laptop (see my specs) from the Insider's Preview to the official 21H2 release of Windows 11 using the same trick. That is running Setup inside Windows 10 or the earlier Windows 11 build to do an in-place upgrade to the newer build. Before proceeding I deleted the file C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll from setup cache thus bypassing any compatibility check. Upgrade completed successfully and I also run Windows Update and installed all updates without any issue.
The appraiserres.dll trick does work a treat, quick, easy, and simple like candy on Halloween. :)
