I found that even better solution for old hardware is using the Tiny 11 script, you can take any ISO and it will remove every bloat that Microsoft has added (Including Edge tho, so you need to install your browser manually). It works like butter on older PC's.
I tried it on my Lenovo Ideapad 500acz, while it did initially boot to 24H2, but when it was doing the updating for drivers etc... the screen went blank and wouldn't go further. I went back to 23H2. Am I missing something?
First and foremost, if you're using these steps, you're PC is already NOT supported, so there are not guarantees. A black screen is usually a problem with the graphics driver. You could try creating a bootable USB again, and trying one more time. If it doesn't work, it's best to wait for the official release.
@@Pureinfotech Yes, I probably wait for the official release, it's an older laptop, so I don't really care. However, Windows 23 H2 does run smoothly even though it's not supported; no TPM 2.0, a slower CPU etc
you don't HAVE to bypass, he is just using rufus which is a popular tool for copying iso's to usb drives. the only difference is that you might have a "slower" experience. but you will get normal updates i'm pretty sure.. but there might be detections for microsoft to setup to give specific updates.
@@IEatBomb50 I knok what Rufus is, and I also know how to do this. I said that it's not "official" because Windows it's not available from Microsoft to be installed in "unsupported" hardware .
@@IEatBomb50 Yes, but the Video says Install Process (Official), not referring to the official ISO but the installation process. That's what I'm trying to say. I though for a moment that Microsoft changed their mind and released a build of Windows 11 officially without the security requirements.
You have bypassed every version until 23H2 If I were you I'd stop here. 23H2 is complete 24H2 comes with AI improvement made for newer chip even if it works you CPU will be used by all those AI stuff which require the NPU just hard pass on this one
Quick note: Remember that your PC is already NOT supported if you're using these steps, so there's no guarantee that the OS will run on your device.

Could you please provide more info or a site/video where one can follow a step-to-step process to install the OS? Thanks :)
Hey when i install it then windows 11 logo comes and computer restarts

Any solution to bypass popcnt in cpu
Impossible, it's hardcoded in the kernel
What @Crabery said.
don't do such risk stay in 23H2 it's excellent
If you have to bypass, then it's not official.

@@jvsa89 But in terms of ISO, It's official. It just modified in Rufus (which is optional) to bypass the checks.

Yeah Official is used loosely in this video. This method is not approved by Microsoft but I guess it's the most "official" way of getting it done.

I hear you, but 23H2 is set to retire after 18 months from the original release. You don't have to upgrade. I'll probably use 23H2 until Nov 2025.
