Also, is TPM 2.0 turned on? That one trips up a lot of people. Let me know if that works.

This. And is Secure Boot enabled in your BIOS? Hope that helps.

Same here. Yeah, and double-check that TPM 2.0 is turned on in the BIOS too—that one trips up a lot of people.

You could also try running Microsoft's PC Health Check app—it usually gives a clearer breakdown of what exactly is failing. Let me know if that works.

Another option is to double-check if TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot are enabled in your BIOS, since those are common blockers the installer doesn't always explain well.

You could also try using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant tool instead of the regular installer, as it sometimes handles compatibility checks differently.

Just to be sure, have you double-checked that TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot are both enabled in your BIOS?

Yeah, and if you're not sure how to check those BIOS settings, a quick search for your motherboard model plus "enable TPM 2.0" should get you a guide.

You could also try enabling TPM 2.0 in your BIOS/UEFI settings, as that's a common blocker.
