I have a Lenovo M720s. Windows says that W11 won't work on my computer. It is an i7, but it says it this pc must support secure boot, and TPM 2.0 must be supported and enabled on this PC. Can anyone give me a little guidance on what I need to do? I tried enabling secure boot, but when I do my PC won't start up. TPM not detected is what it says. A less than 2 year old computer should run W11 is what I say.

Specs are all OK processor is supported and TPM 2.0 capable but disabled in BIOS if not detected. That you have secure boot disabled is interesting. That means you must be running what, Windows 7, on a MBR partitioned drive? Windows 11 upgrade won't install unless you get secure boot enabled and drive partitioned with GPT (GUID), but you can do it from a clean install. Update to latest UEFI BIOS from Lenovo, too.
