Hi there
Just to confirm -- running W11 on that computer -- I gave up trying to update W10 from 1909 EOL ---- whatever I tried it just wouldn't work -- even trying to switch back to MBR.

The computer apart from the Opeteron X4321 CPU is perfectly W11 capable so far (has TPM / sec boot etc). I created winpe bootable disk, then installed to a physical VHDX and it worked perfectly. I couldn't install W10 even on a VHDX -- never had that problem with a machine where a later OS would install but an update of an earlier OS would fail. !!

Much as I like W10 I think if you can make it work OK W11 seems to run fine -- amazing that it installs when W10 won't do anything later than 1909 !!



Well call it "The Ghost in the Machine" if you like but I'm sure we've all experienced rogue hardware at one point when messing around with Windows. !!

Anyway at least one convert to W11 here now. It's working although for how long ??
