Hi @Bastet & @raaskarr
It might help Bastet if you can
[HEADING=3]Can you Download and run and then post. Speccy - Free Download
To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:[/HEADING]
[HEADING=3]In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.[/HEADING]
In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

The last part of each URL is randomized, so only people you provide with the URL will be able to find your profile.

The information given in Speccy cannot be used by anyone to hack your system

Could you also include the power supply specs E.g Cooler Master 850W Gold V2 NOT E.g 850w

and download CrystalDiskInfo - Crystal Dew World [en]
the standard edition and run

[raaskarr]

I am going to replace the SSD and re-install windows. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Am I the only one getting a bit lost here.
In Post #1 you are asking for advice on parts so you can upgrade to windows 11.

Then you are talking about reinstalling windows 10.

Your cpu does not make the list for Windows 11.
So, unless you run the bypass method you will have to upgrade the cpu.
Then do a fresh install of windows 11
Install your chipset drivers your sata drivers and your network drivers.
Then install updates and programs.

Do you know if your programs/games will run on win11?

In my opinion only.
Before spending money on a new cpu.
If you have a spare drive, I would install win 11 with the bypass
Install all drivers, games and programs.
If it all works and you like 11 then buy a new cpu

No. You not lost. I’m staying with Windows 10 for now. I had HDD crash couple months ago. Then Windows got corrupted and instead of trying to repair I re-installed with not the best result. I’m getting an error message about drivers not installing and I can’t update any further. I will have another SSD in a few days and install Windows 10 on that. Thanks for trying to help a novice if that.

[PeterOz]

That ssd you posted crystal report is still a good drive.
Reinstall Win 10 Fresh Install

Download the win 10 tool run it to recreate the flash drive – Must be minimum 8GB

Download Windows 10

Watch this video
How To Install Windows 10 From USB - YouTube
In the video at 2:54 you will notice it restarts the computer.
When you are doing this and you get to that point Remove the usb stick whilst it is restarting.
Also if you want to setup a local account instead of logging in with a Microsoft account
Turn off your wireless network and or remove the network cable.
This point is 3.32 in the video - Choose I don’t have internet.
If you want to log in with a Microsoft account then leave the network as is.

Before doing any install, it is a good idea to go to the support page for your system. Download the drivers you are going to need ie chipset, sound, video, wireless, etc. While win10 has a lot of native drivers, microsoft drivers are designed for ease of use and are NOT designed for any type of performance. Store these drivers on another usb or you can even just make a folder on your install usb when you are finished making the install usb. Copy the drivers into that folder.

When you are finished with the install, then install your drivers. Install the chipset first then the rest of them. Reboot each time when prompted.

From here a list on how to install Proper Installation Order for Windows Drivers

Thanks for the help. I went to the download page, made an installation usb. On the same page was the 22H2 upgrade. I upgraded and the update and driver error messages disappeared. I am now up to date. Now for the drivers. I still may re-install to get the drivers right. Are we talking about what’s on the Gigabyte support page? I think they are ZIP files. Is there a free ZIP tool for this? A while (years) back I used WinZip but that’s not free.
