Then after 10 booted up to the desktop I did ran the "setup" file from another stick I made using the Windows 11 Media Creation Tool https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11 . But during the install I did tell it to "not" check for updates. I think it works better that way. I did the 10 first because my daughter had never used 11 and I let her mess around a bit on my 11 box to see if she wanted to move to 11. Right now not much reason to rush to 11 unless you just want to. Good! She doesn't like ISO's, so this will be perfect for her. Keep in mind, @BlackRoseif you do this, be sure you have an empty USB stick. Once done, you can always do a fresh installation with it. You can fill up this USB stick with whatever you want. I always download and save the motherboard drivers and such, on the USB stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Got to have a 8GB stick to place the files on..... or just PM me an address and I'll send you a USB with WIN10 or 11, you pick. Found some USB 2.0 32GB in a bargain bin for 10 cents each, so no big loss for me. BUDMAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Once you have the ISO, load that into Rufus. Look at that screenshot I gave, but 99% of the time, the ISO/Rufus does it for you. -You can change the Title of the USB stock yourself, as I use : Win10 or Win11, depends on what I want. After that, boot it from it and let it go. If there are issues again, you might have to check the BIOS for settings. The most important thing in the BIOS is to have the boot from GPT. That is, that you don't have the CSM enabled (in BOOT section). But with the BIOS reset/default, it is not enabled. UEFI is what it is needed. Have Secure-boot enabled too. Check what motherboard you have and google it, select images, and you see where that is. Secretly I hope you have purchased an AMD system, but I guess I am wrong Intel sucks ass.

I have no idea how to fix that. Seems like their login service is out? Optional, dual boot could be nice if you still have the old drive. With that, cloning to a SSD/M2.

I too have tried every thing I could find to try yet nothing has solved my problem. is because file format changed from FAT32 to NTFS NTFS and FAT32 file systems differ in the following ways: The FAT32 file system cannot store individual files larger than 4 GB, while the NTFS file system can. Compared to FAT32, the NTFS file system has higher disk utilization and can manage disk space more effectively. the memory registers moved and app/exe not see it anymore BlackRose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
