I am attempting to prepare for the upgrade to windows 11.  It is telling me that my processor does not have the appropriate processor.

My existing processor specs are as follows:

  • CPU speed: 2.9 GHz (3.8 GHz - max turbo boost)
  • CPU cores: 4
  • CPU Cache: 8 MB
  • TDP: 35 W
  • Integrated graphics: Intel HD graphics 630

The Recommended Requirements for the upgrade are as follows , which seems to be the same as what I already have::

@HardyR2P 

We can not address this as we have no control over what MS demands to install Win11 or what the various checking utilities say is required.

 

HOW are you determining that your processor is preventing the upgrade?
