XPS 8910 - TPM not Windows 11 compatible?
My XPS 8910 BIOS says that TPM is enabled, but the Microsoft checkup tool says my system is not compatible with Windows 11. Am I out of luck or are there other BIOS settings I need to tweak?

out of luck. 8910 has intel core 6th gen cpu, 100 series chipset. It is basically 8900 in a newer XPS case.
you need minimum 8th gen core cpu (and 300 series chipset).

The requirements for Windows 11 are a mess. First, there were hard floor and soft floor requirements but now the requirements seem to be more specific. Even the Windows 11 compatibility tool has been changing. We will just have to wait until all this is sorted out, See this article: https://www.zdnet.com/article/will-your-pc-run-windows-11-even-microsoft-cant-say-for-sure/

Thanks, I missed the CPU compatibility problem. TPM (which XPS 9100 does have) wasn't the problem to upgrading Windows 11.
