Thank you for the information about the hardware requirements and conditions for upgrading to Windows 10 in GPT (UEFI) mode.
It's good to know that people with MBR formatted drives can use the mbr2gpt tool to convert their drives before upgrading, and that disabling CSM and activating TPM are also necessary steps. Overall, it's important for people to make sure their hardware meets the necessary requirements before attempting an upgrade or clean installation of Windows 10 in GPT (UEFI) mode. |

It's great that you're providing information about supported and unsupported hardware for upgrading to Windows 10. Upgrading to Windows 10 requires specific conditions to be met, such as having it installed in GPT (UEFI) mode, disabling CSM, and activating TPM. For those with MBR-formatted drives, using the mbr2gpt tool from Microsoft can help convert the drive to after making backups, facilitating a smooth upgrade process.

I will never install Windows 11 on my Asrock MB-based Computer. In fact when I had this computer made by a local business, it came installed with Windows 10 on it. Well, I took a USB Thumb Drive, installed the Linux Mint ISO on it, and on first start up I went right to the USB Thumb Drive and installed Linux Mint right over the Windows Drive.
