Windows 11 on Boot Camp (no TPM 2.0)?
by Guest LEOMODE- 0 replies
- 5 views
Hi, has anyone tried installing Windows 11 beta on 7,1? I already have Windows 10 installed and when I ran the upgradability check tool, it said since there is no TPM 2.0 installed Windows 11 is impossible. But I think this can be an error as it seems like Windows 11 supports even older Intel CPU’s, but I might be wrong as this is Xeon processor. Any experience sharing will be great. Thanks.

Windows EFI missing after updating OpenCore
by Guest dksoutha- 0 replies
- 4 views
I did something wrong when updating Martin Lo's OpenCore package to 0.7.5 today. Now I no longer see the Windows folder in the EFI partition, and OpenCore no longer offers my Windows drive as a boot option. Do I need to reinstall Windows, or is there a simpler way to recreate the Windows files for the EFI folder? As always, many thanks in advance Source: MacRumors

Windows not bootable on OWC Accelsior S in 5,1?
by Guest flyproductions- 0 replies
- 21 views
So i had this Accelsior collecting dust for some time while the Windows install in my 5,1 is at one of the slow SATA-ports.

It sits on it's own SAMSUNG 860 EVO 1TB. Boots fine at any of the normal SATA-ports, trays as well as in the optical departement. But with the Accelsior it just does not. Not even if it is the only... Read more Source: MacRumors

So I bought a wireless mouse at 5 below thinking I could just pair it with my iPhone but I was wrong so I connected the usb with a connector I have and the mouse works when it’s connected to my phone but my on screen keyboard goes away.
