Installing Windows 11 on 'Unsupported' Hardware!

Today we're gonna try and install the leaked Windows 11 build on an "unsupported" machine. The installer says that this HP laptop can't run Windows 11. But with some modifications to the files on the installation media, we can fix that!

Running Windows 8 or newer operating systems without an SSD is just absolute torture 😫

[VirtualNate]

You just inexplicably upgraded the laptop from Windows XP straight to 11 and nobody's talking about it.
Edit: Man you guys need to stop complaining. It's pretty much a joke at this point.

[Snafuuu]

using this laptop for an hour is a perfect anger managment test

Hello. First what You should do is to permanently set the swap file on the hard disk -2-3GB, second, as you can see, the RAM usage is practically 100% of the 1GB. It's a very good idea to increase it to 2 or 4 GB. Third, replacing only the drive with an SSD should give a very noticeable improvement. However, SSDs will be under a heavy load replacing the RAM shortages. 4 GB RAM will be max for laptop and C2D

The front-facing Windows logo on Windows 11 boot screen is one of the scariest things i saw in a while. I don't like how it just stares at me without "saying" anything in a plain black bg.

Every time I hear Walk Through The Park I can’t help but think of DankPods

I LOVE YOU, YOU KNOW HOW MANY YOUTUBE VIDEOS I WATCHED AND YOUR THE ONLY ONE THAT GOT THE BAYPASS WORKING FOR INSTALLATION ON OLD PC'S. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOUR A GENIUS FOR SWAPPING OUT THE SOURCES FILES IN THE BOOTLE USB.

[gheffz]

Thanks, Mike... I installed it following your two "get around" tweaks ... worked beautifully on an old i7 desktop system from early 2012... a decent old system... CPU 6 core at 3.2 GHz with 32 GB DDR3 RAM and an SSD. (It originally did have a 5400 RPM 2.5" drive ... which ran extremely slow like your demo!!!)

The speed of this is giving me flashbacks of trying to run windows 10 on a netbook with 1gb of ram...

You don't need to recreate the ISO image
You don't need to use Rufus (because it can UEFI or BIOS only)
You can format your USB drive to FAT32 using the diskpart utility and make a partition "active"
Then just drag and drop the installation files to your USB drive and it will be bootable for UEFI and BIOS both

Michael trying to do something with a Windows install?

Oh, this gon' be good.

[itsTomate]

I think we learned today that “unsupported” really is unsupported

[rajat_gondkar]

That literally shows the capability of a SSD, I have got a few old Laptops and a SSD would make them work great again.

[Akitando]

Isn't Windows struggling because the disk is 100% full, memory is almost maxed out, and it's spending most of its time trying to swap out to disk? Either trying to clean some disk space, replace the HD altogether or add more RAM make this way more usable?

oh, half way through the video you change to SSD, so yes, thanks :)

[Yodaboi]

When you hear “ hello everybody” ur day goes good automatically

Microsoft: "Everything seems fine! Ship it!"

[commentarysheep]

This won't be an MJD video without having a slow hard drive in a computer, and therefore, without the computer going absolutely nuts.

[primus]

Hdd high usage is from having 1gb ram so the system is swapping out to virtual mem on the hdd 24/7 at about 80mb/s if u maxed the ram it wouldn't have been that slow

[adambrown]

Dude! Thanks for the video. I don't know if Win11 will be in my future. However; a HUGE thanks for the music editing. You've now turned me on to music artists Kevin MacLeod and Otis McDonald( Rest ). You have a new subscriber. :)

Him, tries to open Microsoft Edge:
"this is *unusable"*

Me, who plays cs:go on my Toshiba satelite series laptop with 5400 rpm drive and 2gb of ram:
*"n o n s e n s e"*
