Windows 11 not meeting minimum hardware requirements
Hello everyone!
So yesterday I successfully updated my pc to Windows 11 through the beta channel update. However when I go into my settings and go to the Windows insider tab, it says that I officially dont meet the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11. But this is impossible. since I use an Omen gaming PC.
My PC specs are:
CPU: Intel I7 7th gen
GPU: AMD RX 580 4gb vram
RAM: 16GB RAM
I installed the newest version of my gpu together with direct x12. Unfortunately, it still shows the same message.
What should I do? Is this an error? somebody else with the same problem?
I uploaded an image with the pop up. (it is in Dutch but you get the point)
I hope this will get fixed by Microsoft soon

in settings:windows security:device security do you see “your device meets the requirements for standard hardware security “?
I had to change bios settings to turn on safe boot and TPM and such.

Hi!
If Windows11 works then such notifications are useless to me!
I always ignore or block any notifications and suggestions of the system - I rely on my own experience and do not care - if everything works .

iitsmeesarah I have the same issue. My pc doesn't meet the requirements, which is odd. my pc ran me over 4000 bucks. top of the line gaming hardware.
Upon researching the requirements, I've got 4 times that of the requirements. CPU must be intel 8th or higher, I have the intel 7th.
talk about close, one under. However, i was informed that Microsoft will more likely let me upgrade to win 11.
- Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorLike I said earlier, make sure report this issue through the Feedback Hub app.
