Hi folks,

If you want to try out Windows 11 on an old computer that won't support it, here is a little workaround using an application called Rufus, just installed Windows 11 on a 12 year old PC, running great at the moment.

With this method you have to boot from a 8GB or more USB drive for a clean install, don't think it works to upgrade windows 10.

Windows updates are running fine at the moment but who knows what will happen in future if Microsoft was to turn them off for unsupported hardware.

The method to install is simple and straight forward enough and didn't take me long. Details in link below.

Windows 10 (64bit) M-Audio Fast Track Pro, Band in a Box 2025, Cubase 14, Cakewalk and far too many VST plugins that I probably don't need or will ever use smile
