Hi- I have an Elitebook 850-G5 and according to specs, it is compatible with Win 11.
However I am unable to upgrade as the TPM version is not V2.
Can someone help?
Thanks
Andy

Sorry. My machine is an HP 840 G5 and I've been running Windows 11 many many moons now. What is the error message ?
Please check and turn on if required
Regards.

Did you change anything when you bought your machine to now (I think it is 7 years old now). You did not following above instructions to enable TPM. Try again then
1. Download Windows 11 ISO file and save on your computer

2. Mount ISO file as DVD drive then run Setup.exe
3. Follow on screen instructions and remember to keep all your files if you wish.
