Such as making ryzen 1st generation not supported. My motherboard has the proper tpm chip. I would of just added 1 more Intel chip to be supported the 7th gen, and the ryzen 1st gen at least. |11pF|09> |10further.|07 |11pF|09> |07 |11pF|09> |10I don't think the whole Windows-Industrial complex works the way it used|07 They should just make a better operating system. Maybe it was a conspiracy to drive new hardware sales. I might have to upgrade my desktop to have a PCI 4.0 bus at the minimum. I will likely wait another six months if I want to convert the chip off my motherboard to a 550 AMD mb, put 32gb of 3600 ddr4 ram and a 2tb m2 stick with a 1tb ssd regular drive and I will be content with that. I currently have a ryzen 5700x. --- WWIV 5.8.0.3616 * Origin: inland utopia * california * iutopia.duckdns.org:2023 (21:4/108) .
