Replacing MB and CPU
My PC is not compatible with W11. It's been 7 years and I m OK to upgrade it. Currently I am running W11 Preview Insider preview. If I replace a MB and CPU what is going to happen? Will I have to reinstall the OS from scratch? I dont think I have my W10 copy anywhere. Can someone please help?
Thanks
- You mentioned about running Windows 11, does it shows your device is not compatible?
Windows 10 installer file is available here:

In case your device is not compatible with Windows 11, make sure report this issue using Feedback Hub app.That is what it says when I click on Windows Insider Program:
But I am also trying to figure out whether I can just install new MB and CPU and continue using my current system.
- Your system must meet the system requirements for Windows 11 which are:

You may open Feedback Hub app and file a report that your system is not compatible.
