Do I get a Windows 11 pass?

CPU Compatibility is the only issue here. Will Windows 11 still run?

I think that largely will depend on your CPU. What do you have?

Doh! Now I see the processor information at the bottom.

From what I've read elsewhere, I believe Microsoft is working on making Windows 11 compatible with i7 processors. Currently, I think it's incompatible, though I've seen some posts here where people have i7 chips and have met compatibility requirements.

Here's a question regarding i7 processor's working with Windows 11 on Microsoft answers forum that was created June 29th:

There are probably more recent articles and answers.

Hope that helps.
