i'd just be happy if microsoft would "annoint" my 3yo Dell PC as "Windows 11 worthy".

i still go through their stupid checker and it doesn't like something about the bios or some crap. i get the 'check back later' from them and no way i'm going to go around that and try & sideload it.

It probably wants a TPM 2.0. It is possible your computer has one but its disabled in the bios but also likely your computer does not have it. You may be able to install one if you wanted to go that route. Maybe this could help? LINK

Windows 11 requires Secureboot and TPM to be enabled. You can usually turn on TPM in the BIOS. Since your PC is only 3 years old, it should have TPM available.

** TPM can be provided in two ways: a separate TPM chip on the board or by the CPU itself via virtualization. My AMD processor comes with TPM emulation.
