Released sometime in September, Windows 11 24H2’s new PopCnt cpu requirement will keep most unsupported pc’s from even booting. Unlike TPM and secure boot, so far there is no work around for this requirement.

This is built in to Windows 11. Go to settings/gaming and turn on game mode. You can set graphics to high performance for each game.

I used the TPM registry hack on an Intel 6th generation to install Windows 11 22H2, only works using the iso to install, will not work with installation assistant. Since 23H2 is the same file structure as 22H2, was able to update to 23H2 through Windows update. When installing with the iso image I was not able to keep most programs, had to do a clean install.

Just saw this today ; https://www.guru3d.com/story/windows-11-activation-changes-for-windows-7-81-users/

That’s a midrange system. The i3 12100 is an awesome little processor for the price. You should be fine with the games you want to play. More demanding games will require turning some settings to medium or low. This sight shows fps for alot of games, should give you an idea of what to expect; https://chipguider.com/?vp=geforce-rtx-3050-ti-6gb-with-core-i3-12100-benchmark-1

I would try verifying game files before uninstalling the game.

In settings click on Display and scroll to bottom and click on Advanced Display Settings;

I have had this problem before and this worked for me; https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YPnXbP__Ick

You can use another computer or a friends and copy the cd to a usb drive and install from that.

Go to your Profile folder and make sure there were no $$$ accounts created. Open your "active" folder in your profile folder and make sure it displays your correct name and not $$$. If all is good, you can try this. Has worked for many: https://www.thetechgame.com/Archives/t=5597043/cod-waw-online-profile-issue-solved.html

Did you allow CoDWaWMP.exe through your firewall? Are you using the original cd key from which your profile was created? (Insert key in game menu in single player).Try running the .exe as admin from your Steam /common folder.

Have you looked in event viewer for any errors? Do you have a different headset to try just to rule that out?

New feature, can now manage Samsung portable ssd.

After disabling Windows Hello, no longer have these problems. I've fixed a lot of problems with sfc/scannnow, thanks for the post.

If your using MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision, try down clocking the card and see if that helps. Also check video memory for errors, https://www.raymond.cc/blog/having-problems-with-video-card-stress-test-its-memory/

I've used DDU in the past, great program and has helped lots of people. I'm now using NvCleanstall. Program will automatically install the latest driver only downloading the parts that you pick to install, deletes all old files before install and automatically blocks Windows update from installing a driver. Works great and has caused no problems to date. https://www.wagnardsoft.com/ https://www.techpowerup.com/nvcleanstall/

The Windows 10 November 2021 update is available to download today, updated and so far no problems; https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

As a general rule, Toyota usually takes at least three years before they get all the bugs worked out of a new generation. The newest generation of Rav4 started in 2019 and was also a mess when it was released.

2022 Tundras will have the new twin turbo V-6. Toyota claims more hp, torque and better fuel mileage than the V8’s. Design seems to be towards more power and better cooling. Not sure I’d want to be a 1st adopter though. The new engine in the Tacoma was a mess when it was 1st released.

For those who have not used DHC drivers before, starting with the newest driver-496.13 and above- there will be no more standard drivers. You can use NVCleanstall to install, installing only what you want; https://www.techpowerup.com/nvcleanstall/ 496.13 drivers and above will now let you set Shader Cache Size- disc space allowed for storing shader cache files, could fix some stuttering in games depending what games you play. If this is set to unlimited and you have allot of games installed, when you uninstall games useless cache files will be left over taking up disc space. Pretty sure Driver Default setting is 256mb ,

Those of you with AMD cpu’s may want to hold off on installing W11 till later; https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/windows-11-is-up-to-15-percent-slower-with-amd-cpusfixes-coming-in-october.html

Found the old w10 install under "Settings/System/Storage/Temporary Files/Previous Windows Installations", This was not seen in Disk Cleanup as in W10 If these files are left alone, they will automatically deleted in 10 days.

You can use the other option for the media creation tool to make installation media and install fresh, will have to reinstall apps though.

Are all drives GPT partition? Secure boot will not work with MBR partitions. Bios must be UEFI also.

Was really surprised how easy it was. In Windows 10 my drivers would all be changed to Microsoft outdated ones and there would also be about 25gig of used space for "Windows Old" which is not present after the Windows install with the Installation Assistant. Just have to get used to the UI changes. My Pc's that do not meet W11 requirements show a warning in Windows Update saying "what" is not supported. Do not see any way to revert back to W10, not sure if this is the case when updating through Windows Update. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11?ranMID=24542&ranEAID=nOD/rLJHOac&ranSiteID=nOD_rLJHOac-OYyBaKcrpFcaXS2mkpBY3w&epi=nOD_rLJHOac-OYyBaKcrpFcaXS2mkpBY3w&irgwc=1&irclickid=_3wexct0ae0kf6zdjaotq3lnicm2xrcjqi129pcec00 After looking around a bit it appears if you go to Settings/System/Recovery/Go Back, you can revert back to Windows 10
