+1 You could also check your BIOS settings to see if TPM is disabled, since sometimes it's there but just turned off.

This. You could also try using a registry edit workaround to bypass the TPM check, but that's not officially supported.

Yeah, and that workaround can be a bit risky, so what's your comfort level with editing the registry? Let me know if that works.

Same here. Did you ever check if your motherboard's BIOS has a TPM setting you can enable? Hope that helps.

I had the same problem. I ended up having to enable both TPM and Secure Boot in my BIOS before the installer would finally cooperate. Hope that helps.

Yeah, and just to add, your FX-8350 isn't officially supported for Windows 11 at all, so even with TPM enabled you might hit another wall.

Yeah, Honestly, given the CPU, you're probably better off sticking with Windows 10 for now.

Agreed. If you really want to try, you can check your BIOS to see if TPM is disabled, but it's a long shot with that CPU. Good luck!

Yeah, and if it's not in the BIOS, that CPU just isn't on the supported list, so that's likely the real blocker.

This. I had the same problem. My older AMD chip just wasn't on the list, so I had to stick with Windows 10.
