Go into bios and reset everything back to defaults the save+Exit

Boot from Win11 setup and see error it gives if there are any
Got both TPM and Secure boot is missing. Then go into bios and enable 1 feature at a time and see if the enable feature disappears from the list of requirements.
Yes it disappears, then back into bios and enable the other requirement and repeat.

Still don't work, Re download windows 11, do the ISO version and make a USB bootable drive using Rufus.

 

Yayyyyyy!!!! It finally worked, currently installing win11. I'll let you know if I run into any other problems.

Have you updated the BIOS lately???

Ok thanks, ill try this, ill let you know how it goes.

No problem! Also, be sure to only update to the latest non-Beta BIOS. Beta BIOS' can be buggy and result in system instability.

I've updated to the most recent bios version available for my motherboard, re-enabled secure boot, and TPM 2.0. Still no luck. PC Health Check still says I need to enable secure boot. Any other sugestions?

How are you trying to install Windows 11 by upgrading or a clean install?

have you tried booting directly from the Win11 boot media. because that screenshot looks like you're still inside windows.

Yeh, the screenshot is from PC Health Check running in Windows 10. Thats what microsoft recomened for troubleshooting what might be wrong while installing wondows 11.image.png.99c669e7ce17beb56acfa9fe519a60aa.png

The Windows 11 checker might be bugged. Boot directly from your Windows 11 install media, the installer will still check your PC and if it does not work, it'll tell you what's missing and setup will not continue.

How are you booting directly from the Windows 11 install media?

Are you booting from inside Windows 10?

Setup is suppose to specify why your system cannot install Windows 11 not that generic error. Try this and see if it does anything or gives more info

Go into bios and reset everything back to defaults the save+Exit

Boot from Win11 setup and see error it gives if there are any
Got both TPM and Secure boot is missing. Then go into bios and enable 1 feature at a time and see if the enable feature disappears from the list of requirements.
Yes it disappears, then back into bios and enable the other requirement and repeat.

Still don't work, Re download windows 11, do the ISO version and make a USB bootable drive using Rufus.
