Well, for example, in timespy I lost about 250 points .....I waited and ran it , I would say, 5-6 times making sure I started it at the same #'s every time ..... Heaven, Valley and Kombuster saw drops too, that seemed outside margin.........

But what percentage is that?

Giving a number with no context truly holds no meaning

I got this........ not asking for "advice" ......just relating my experience, what I am learning........ and that is to figure this out myself ........ as I learn more about the relationship between software and hardware I most certainly will get better at #' s ...... an example being TimeSpy; ran very consistent 9200-9500 scores (drivers, temp., inconsistency affected #'s) ...... installed "11" couldn't get over 9000 ......all approximate #'s ...... made suggested changes to "DVR" in registry .....my #'s came back ....... all tested as consistently as I possibly could ...... I am not a "teacher", but a "student" ....... some of you folks are formerly trained in this discipline, I am a Boeing 747/767 Aircraft Mechanic for 35 years (retired) ...... this is all "Kindergarten" for me ...... I have 12 more grades to pass to get to your level

No worries, I believe you. While not common, you're not alone having that experience. Try to look through your settings and kill anything that runs in the background. Also look through your Services and stop/disable any that are not needed.

That makes me wonder what is running in the background that wasn't running in Win10.

I started that process this morning as you suggested, Mr. Lex ....... thank you for the heads up ....... I am not only working on this, I am also working on communicating precisely so my info is correct as suggested by all

New devices might get a Windows 11 upgrade offer as soon as install/OOBE time.

This just happened in my mom's laptop that she just bought

Keullo-e · Oct 9, 2021

Installed as well just now. Feels weird but well, I got used to 8.1 and 10 as well years ago.

Need to check later that how to install this on unsupported hardware.

Space Lynx · Oct 9, 2021

I think I will do a clean install on my work laptop tonight.

My 10 Pro install was like ~1month old so it didn't have that much crap gathered.

Easy peasy man.

Just follow @btarunr advice here:

Windows 11 TPM Requirement? Bypass it in 5 Minutes

So you have a $2,000 Core i7-6950X HEDT processor, which you thought would last forever, but Windows 11 Setup stands in your way with its steep system requirements that include TPM and Secure Boot. What do you do? With Windows 11, Microsoft introduced new requirements for compatible hardware...

Yeah I already bookmarked that one :toast:

I need to just get used to this first

a new UI needs always some testing etc to get used to it. :laugh:

got my work laptop all done with a full clean install of win 11. i did change the taskbar to icons to left like normal, couldn't stand the center icons. but was an easy fix.

overall I like it, but for some reason my internet speed slowed down to 1/3 the speed i was getting... and yes i updated all drivers manually, and i even let M$ do optional driver installs for me

Atheros wifi? I had all sorts of shenaningans with a W10 update and certain wifi cards, needed an updated generic driver and/or forcing to the 5GHz band to make them work right

its realtek wifi. i don't know the model number, win 11 had some default drivers for it.

Try finding newer manually, i've seen the W11 updater find drivers from 2007
It gets stable drivers, not always the best.

Keullo-e · Oct 10, 2021

Knocking on the table but my wifi seems to be more stable than it was with W10.

Tho sometimes it can work for longer times without crapping out, maybe it's this now.

Hachi_Roku256563 · Oct 10, 2021

I have questions about windows 11
can i set the all app view on the start menu as the default?

Space Lynx · Oct 10, 2021

My only question is, when I right click something to copy it, I don't like the tiny icons at the top for that, I want the classic view... but I have to click show more options for that... each time... how do I make it so I don't have to click show more options each time?

LifeOnMars · Oct 10, 2021

Windows 11 was fine and all but just installed ghost spectre win 10 superlite and it's awesomely smooth, fast with no guff. Best min fps I've had and has resolved some issues I had with games on standard win 10 installs. Highly recommended.

Mussels is right, try going to the Realtek site and grab drivers from them directly.

W11 is a great OS and sure it will be improved but there are some minor things that Microsoft added to it that are annoying.
