I'm glad you mentioned that @save the frogs There is good reason why I do not pay for companionship. Because I accept what I think could be my faults and work to improve them, I can connect with people on a deeper level than the ones who choose to fool themselves. That way you have relationships based on deeper ties than those who use money. You cannot buy that with money.

@save the frogs I'm on the universe team.

@save the frogs You just look at the surface. You didn't understand what was really going on. No depth. There was someone who was just playing the fool. But he is best ignored.

With respect @cme You don't appear to understand what you are writing. The BIOS has literally nothing to do with it. Nothing at all. In addition, I think that you misunderstood the advice to fit an SSD. Allow me to explain. Many people will remember the experience of Windows Updates on a PC with a HDD. Often they could not even use the device properly whilst updates were taking place. Large updates could take an age. You had to go off and make yourself a cup of tea and a few biscuits. With a solid state drive, updates are installed quickly and don't cause much disturbance. This will be a boon for the OP. Briefly getting back to your assertion that the problem is the BIOS. Do you know what BIOS actually means? Basic Input/Output System. That has literally nothing to do with why some devices are deemed to be incompatible(even when they are perfectly able to install Windows 11). Processor 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with 2 or more cores on a compatible 64-bit processor or System on a Chip (SoC). RAM 4 gigabytes (GB) Storage 64 GB or larger storage device. See More information on storage space to keep Windows 11 up-to-date for more details. System firmware UEFI, Secure Boot capable. Check here for information on how your PC might be able to meet this requirement. TPM Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0. Check here for instructions on how your PC might be enabled to meet this requirement. Graphics card Compatible with DirectX 12 or later with WDDM 2.0 driver. Display High definition (720p) display that is greater than 9” diagonally, 8 bits per color channel. As you can see, BIOS is not even mentioned. UEFI is. But, the assertion of security features you mention is just a red herring. Windows 10 actually has the same ability to bond with TPM 2.0, but it is optional. With Windows 11, the design is meant to lock you into their subscription services. Instead of your data staying on your PC, it is automatically uploaded into OneDrive and removed from your PC. You have to go in and tell it not to do so. What does that have to do with security? Better to run it as you would Windows 7/10, with a Local account, to keep control of your own data. That effectively means that the requirements are for Microsoft's purpose and not your own. Forget about their 'recommendations' and install it your way. None of their tracking and taking control of your personal data. So please, be careful with your advice.

Mess up computer threads @transam? A bit egotistical methinks. I've certainly added value to your thread by actually explaining things to people, rather than just posting a video and patting myself on the back.

Yes, @scubascuba3 I read the ingredients and posted details on them. The Instant custard powder contains milk products, sugar, palm oil, maltodextrin... Original custard powder is much better. No weird additives. Also can just add fresh milk, rather than 'milk' made with powder.

Good to see you joining your brothers in arms @KannikaP and @CallumWK, @transam We now have a full complement of the brightest and best

Actually the box is still usable, albeit with just an Allwinner 616 CPU. It runs Android 10, which isn't that bad. Even if you decide to upgrade it, there is no need to spend the kind of money suggested, without any explanation of why you should do so. Added to that, they don't have any products for sale: https://shopee.co.th/saengrudei No need to spend more than 2k unless you have some specific need. But as you allude, your sticking point is not hardware, but the need for someone to update the software installed. I suggest you change your subject title or start a new thread asking about IPTV providers and how to install their packages. Quite a few use their services here, so you'll get some feedback. I suspect then the sticking point will be someone to install it for you, as doing it yourself seems as if it might be a bit of a leap. I suspect what you purchased was a Fully Loaded Android Box, wherein the local seller might update the box periodically for you. This kind of thing: https://shopee.co.th/product/10758731/6196629643 It's not a recommendation. More of a demonstration that I understand what you mean. Perhaps get a moderator to adapt your title to fit what you need. I expect you'll get a few PM's from the usual suspects.

All these creepy creatures coming out of the woodwork...eeewww Absolutely good for nothing.

@KannikaP Be a man of your word. It was your last reply. A leopard cannot change it's spots. I'm not interested in conversing with you, ever again. Some lines you don't cross, as a man. This thread is about Windows 11. Desist.

@scubascuba3 man, you are freaking me out. Who makes custard with water?! Now you are writing about milk powder?? What's going on?! I had to run a search and indeed discovered there are two kinds of Bird's Custard powder. One is Instant, which is what you purchased and the other Original. Instant suggests adding water, wherein with the Original, you add milk. Thanks for the 'heads up' to not even think of buying the Instant version. I'll stick with the Royallee powder for now and look at something like Bird's Original when that runs out. Mainly because Royallee contains food additives. Instant is not for me, with it's sugar and Palm oil...

Time to replace. Are you referring to reinstalling some kind of IPTV functions or KODI? For what were you using it? Reminds me that I haven't seen @Jai Dee around here for a while...

@KannikaP I have a long memory...

Hey @elfpattaya People who downloaded the Microsoft image after the 14th of October, were more likely to obtain the latest image with 25H2 enabled. Before that, 24H2. 25H2 will come to the latter via WIndows Updates in due course. 24H2 already has the features of 25H2, though just not activated. KB5054156 is the Enablement Package that activates those 'features'.

@jimmybcool Were they wrong about Bush and Iraq? You write it as if you have some evidence to the contrary. Please present it.
