Likely because TPM 2.0. There is a megathread on here somewhere.... I would look through that.

no i didnt want to install it, i just used the check provided by ms

[NelizMastr]

enable fTPM in UEFI, enable secureboot. That should do it.

Likely to be the TPM. Enable it in your BIOS. That's what it was for me.

The check is pretty buggy, I've seen plenty of people that have the recommended specs and settings all good to go and still get that it's incompatible. I'd chalk it up to Windows 11 not even being out yet and that the health check may just need to be updated. But yes you do need to have TPM 2.0 enabled and the computer must be in UEFI with Secure boot enabled and CSM disabled.

First, BETA/DEV versions should be installed "Fresh" on a formatted drive, not updated... BUT If you can enable TPM It should "work"... You can always try to find a modified BIOS with TPM 2.0 support if your bios doesn't support it.... I'm sure there will be a lot of Bios updates rolling out soon to make more MOBO's compatible (Most systems can update through WinUpd now so it something most people wont even notice happening).... Otherwise, you have to bypass it using the Win10 install media files. (which is NOT the right way to end up with a fully working version of Windows 11)....

I have same issue. My laptop has tpm 2.0 chip (I check everywhere in BIOS and device manager to confirm that I have TPM 2.0 chip) but Intel Xeon E3-1505V6 CPU which is 7th generation. Nvidia Quadro M2200, 32 GB ECC RAM, 1.5GB storage. it still says not compatible for Windows 11. I want to scream at Microsoft for not providing updates for such expensive laptops, when I bought mine it was 2600 USD. I dont know what to do?

Mount win 10 iso , copy all content from  sources folder, and paste them at bootable flash drive with win 11 installation, at the same folder called sources. Enable tpm in bios,and install win 11 , but notice i recomend you to format the drive you are installing win 11 to. If you bump in some other issue dont hesitate to dm.

I dont want to install Windows 11 right now, as I use my laptop for engineering purpose so i need stable version. My only issue is, even though I have TPM chip but 7th Gen CPU and so I wont get the official update. Thats just outright annoying!

As far I can tell, i think lot of things will change till official release of win 11 iso. This is just dev leak, it seems stable enough for daily use,but more than that not so sure. My honest opinion is that Microsoft leaked this version on purpose so people can try it and critize the bad things in it, and go for what is missing , so Microsoft can implement missing features and fix issues till official release .This might be a best approach to date, since OS will be complete for any user power or newbie. Time will tell.
