What's The Oldest CPU That Can Run Windows 11? 

Windows 7

Windows Vista, XP, 7, & 10

linux ubuntu

@@MrIzaiah2007YT windows Vista had potential but because of hardware not being powerful enough to run Vista most people downgraded to xp

vista and 8.1

Wow they still used the 920MX on newer models? Wow. My former laptop also had a 920MX, but the processor was a i5-6198DU (6th gen)

Good Job. How did you get past the TPM requirement?

@@SaanMigwell You can get past the TPM requirement by getting a Windows 11 ISO and flashing it onto a USB stick with Rufus, it automatically gives an option to disable the minimum system requirements, but you could also edit the registry like it was shown in this video.

Dang Russia that’s tough

can you make a video of the process, i understand it may be boring, but to me it is fascinating that windows 11 can be run on 2000 megabytes of ram and a celeron

@Man-O-Sphere News Yeah, Sounds about right.

my 2017 laptop has a 1.2 ghz processor i think theres something wrong here

@@youraveragejoe23 Clock speed is not a valid designator of performance between different architectures. Your 2017 laptop has a CPU with a *base clock* of 1.7 GHz, it boosts higher. It also probably has 4-8 cores, where the Pentium 4 is only single core with HT in some models. Even a Core 2 running at half the speed of a Pentium 4 will smoke it, and that was just one architecture later. Netburst was just that bad.

@@GGigabiteM its a pentium cpu and i have hp pavillion x360 m convertible 11m-ad113dx

I also have e-machines

Well... Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit *didn't* work on my Opteron 165 and that CPU was released in August of 2005 to my knowledge, that CPU does have 2 cores and is technically AMD64. I did however get Windows 10 32-bit to install on there, and it's surprisingly usable

​@@RowanBird779 yes, the Socket 939 CPUs don't work with Windows 10/11 64-bit. The oldest CPUs that can run it are Pentium 4 6x1 and Celeron 4x0. For these old AMD CPUs you could try Windows 7 64-bit, you can run all the modern APPs without problems.

Windows 11 doesn’t have a 32 bit version..

@@comedyreliefguy5112 it can be done using some tweaks

@@sabaysaalon The Atom N570 is a 64 bit CPU. There is no 32 bit build of Windows 11, and you aren't running it.

@@GGigabiteM he didn't claim either thing, he didn't say he had 32 bit win 11 nor that the cpu wasn't supporting 64 bit instructions All he said was that the laptop was 32 bit, meaning it came with a 32 bit OS originally, and that's it.

lo estoy corriendo en una dell inspiron con un core2 duo en 1.3ghz y 8 de ram XD. me salta de vez en vez el error de el dispositivo no cuenta con TPM pero a pesar de funcionar un poco lento todos los dispositivos de la laptop funcionan bien.

Wow. I didn’t know that. Thank you

@@RamtechENGRun either windows 11 or 10 on a 386.

Anwser Is: Since 2012, when Windows 8 came out, Microsoft increased one of the requirements for running newer Windows such as Windows 8, one of which is the support of LAHF/SAHF in 64-bit mode, which is also required to run Windows 11.

Time to run windows 11 on that pentium D system I have laying somewhere in my basement

Bruh… I am using a 2009 Intel pentium T4400 dual core laptop from an Acer Aspire 5732z which has 3GB of RAM and can handle windows 11 soo smoothly. Beat that….

I also upgraded a Sony laptop (which has vista installed previously) which has a dual core pentium from i think 2006 and upgraded it to windows 11 and that runs smoothly!!

​@@ItsHonskiit will go kabumm

Nah bro. You shouldn’t have said did it explode when you watched a video of 8K

they were not made in china

Debian also supports 32bit

Run linux with 1975 PC

yeah except Gentoo is a giant pain in the ass to install and run

Microsoft no longer works with 32-bit systems nor does it support 32-bit processors anymore, so much so that Microsoft made Windows 11 only for 64-bit processors. Sorry any english error, english is not my native language.

There is no 32 bit version. Either you got a modified copy to make it work, or your CPU isn't 32 bit, it's 64.

@@antonisautos8704 my cpu was probably 64 bit but i had 2gb of ram

@@antonisautos8704 I was able to install it in a 32bit laptop AOD257 model with only 2G of RAM. Of course I need to do something by converting 32bit hardware “virtually” into a 64bit hardware. Finding drivers is hard though but successfully did it.

yes errors. Greetings from Brazil, i like your channel.

You need just convert your disk to gpt

@@RamtechENG well I instead upgraded to a gaming PC (Dell optiplex 390) that had windows 10 in it.

(B4 watching the video) nah win11 can run on 32bit systems. i tested that myself a few months after win11's release

@@itsarian. nope, you can t run windows 10 64 bit/ windows 11 on amd athlon 64(socket 754, 939) and opteron, because they lack an instruction for 64 bit versions of windows 8, 10 and windows 11

@@itsarian. No, you can't

Tried on my Opteron X2 165 from mid 2005 and no, they don't have all the 64-bit x86 instructions

The oldest AMD chips that work are Semprons for AM2, they are single-core and have all required instructions

But still lower than what Microsoft really wants

Use another computer and flash a USB stick with tiny 11 using Rufus program. Then stick the flash drive in your windows 7 pc in the boot menu. This fixed my wifi issue. Upgraded from windows 10 to windows 11. Upgrading to tiny 11 will fix the wifi.

If 100Bucks solution doesn't work you can buy an usb internet adapter.

Ty

Only the two last generations of Athlon 64 (on AM2 socket) would maybe will work. The same as for windows 10. It's another problem of not clear minimal requirements from Mircrosoft. Windows 10 64 bit requires CMPXCHG16B instruction, which no Athlon 64 on socket 754 or 939 has, but on socket AM2 versions it is present.

yes 2 be weird but i opened dA after

In principle. So far I have not been able to upgrade any PC to win 11 that doesn't have the TPM. I'm guessing after the first SP that will be an option instead of a requirement. There is too much money to be lost by not allowing the consumer market to update their old software. e.g. I have some old rigs without a TPM. Win11 simply refuses to boot on those rigs. It's not due to insufficient computing power (RAM, CPU, GPU, HDD, SSD) but rather without the TPM the boot strap simply refuses to execute.

>The simple rule of thumb is that all 64-bit Windows since 8.1 have the same real hardware requirements. False. While software vendors like to apply generic monikers like "64 bit" and "32 bit" to specify compatibility, it's a big misnomer, because no 32 or 64 bit implementation of x86, or any processor for that matter between generations has the exact same feature sets. EM64T and AMD64 have evolved over time, and older implementations of those technologies lack instructions that newer implementations have, yet software vendors still use generic descriptions like they're all a homogeneous group across time. Windows 8.1 had the same problem that 11 does now, with using generic 64 bit designation. That caused headaches with Athlon 64 owners, which early models lacked CMPxCHG128b, PrefetchW and LAHF/SAHF. 32 bit x86 was even worse. During the 90s, there were no fewer than 6 different x86 CPU vendors (AMD, Cyrix, Intel, Centaur, Rise and UMC to name a few) that all had a different approach to implementing x86. Software compatibility was an utter nightmare, just saying 32 bit didn't mean anything. >the result should have been much snappier W10/11 as there is no reason why W10/W11 should be much slower than W8.1 Yes, there is a major reason why Windows 10 and 11 are slower, CPU mitigation patches. The reason why old versions of Windows 10 and 8.1 are faster than newer releases is because those older versions didn't have software CPU vulnerability mitigations for things like Spectre and Meltdown, and now a dizzying array of other vulnerabilities found and patched since. Many of these mitigations by themselves have a severe performance penalty, which stacks cumulatively with each succeeding patch for other found mitigations. Older CPUs are hit much harder in performance than newer CPUs. When you go much before Intel's 6th gen parts, you're looking at a 50-70% performance degradation, and even more if HT is enabled. Even with an SSD, it won't help with performance that much, because the CPU itself is taking orders of magnitude more time to do the same amount of work due to having to do it in a much less efficient manner. You can turn many of these mitigations off in Windows 10, but not all of them. You'll be fighting Windows itself to keep them disabled, because it really doesn't want you turning them off.

@@GGigabiteM I've got both Sandy and Ivy Bridge rigs running 10 and associated apps without issue. Well, I guess power consumption for the CPU ramps up, but oh well at least it's not like the 90's where when you bought that pristine 486 it was outdated before you even got dos to stabilize.

I’m not sure you need to do something. Everything is working like on any other PC. But I think some software may not run because of CPU

@@RamtechENG I only bring that up because the point of having a computer is to use it. It’s great that one can get a modern OS to run on such old hardware, but what would the point be if you can’t use the system? I’m not trying to be negative, just speaking from the experience of daily driving a computer designed for Windows 98 that I managed to get XP working on. It was barely usable for browsing the internet and nothing else.
