Can't install Windows 11. Says does not meet minimum sys requirements?

[davidortenn79]

I just bought a new PC. It has an Intel i9 9th gen, 1 GB of ram and 1 TB NVME SSD. I installed Linux Mint as my main OS. I installed Virtual Box and trying to install Windows 11. I setup the VM to have two processors, 8 GB of RAM, and an 80 GB hard drive that I told it to allocate the whole space up front. I searched the web. It says to make sure TPM is on. I checked my computer's BIOS and it is on. Also virtualization is on. Any ideas?

I don't think we need to have another discussion on this. Search the forums.

Yes, your Host Computer probably does have TPM, but the Virtual Machine you are trying to create doesn't as Windows 11 is not fully supported by VirtualBox 6.1.xx, so you need to apply the same published workarounds for a Windows 11 install that you would with Hardware that does not meet the minimum Microsoft Spec to get the installation to work.

Alternatively, you could:

- try creating a modified the Windows 11 ISO to eliminate the hardware checks see: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=107198
- try the latest VirtualBox 7 Beta which does have support Windows 11, but is obviously still being tested - viewtopic.php?f=15&t=107088
