Deb you need at least a 8gb USB flash for the setup files.

I I take it you want a clean install, no upgrade.
2 Download windows 11 ISO From Microsoft using their Media Creation Tool.
3 Have your USB inserted in pc. Rufus should automatically see it.
4 Point Rufus towards the windows 11 iso where you saved it.
5 There is another option you need to set as well there in Rufus as regards MBR etc.
6 When you think you have all that right click start on Rufus, that will extract the windows 11 files from the ISO and also inject the code for the bypass for unsupported hardware on to the USB flash drive.

With this method I used, its a clean install, you will have to re-install all programs again.

There are other ways to upgrade an existing install of windows 10 I believe (with unsupported hardware)

If you are a little wary of doing the above, windows 10 is perfectly fine.

The link again for a clean install of windows 11.

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
