You can't add a TPM chip to your PC, and if you were wanting to do that to upgrade to W11, none of the processors your PC's motherboard would support meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements of an Intel 8th generation Core or newer processor.

 

Your PC also does not have a UEFI BIOS or support secure boot, which are additional W11 hardware requirements.

 

If you are happy with your PC, and if you are interested in installing W11 24H2 on your PC as is, watch this video, which is the easiest way to do it in my opinion, and I have tried many different ways to do this during the last 3 years.

 

Skip the part where he tells you how to get the 24H2 insider preview ISO file.

 

Use the latest one from the Microsoft website link that I posted below the video link.

Download the W24H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).   

 

Download Windows 11

 

You can download the free 7-Zip file utility from the link below.  The top line is for 64 bit.

You'll have to repeat this procedure each October when Microsoft rolls out the new builds because a PC that does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements will never automatically get the update to the next build.

 

Other than that, your PC will continue to get the monthly cumulative and other updates.

 

That's only a minor inconvenience to have continued OS support beyond October of 2025.

 

I'm running W11 24H2 on a Dell 580s PC which has an Intel i5-660 processor, and it works fine.

 

My Dell 580s does not have a TPM chip, a UEFI BIOS, or support secure boot either.

You're very welcome. 

 

Mine has 4 x 4 memory chips for a total of 16 GB.

 

You need to have at least 4 GB of memory installed to run W11.

Your very welcome.

 

Should work fine then,

 

I found this revised video from the YouTube author and this method seems even easier:
