One thing to keep in mind when messing about with modern CPU's on old hardware is hardware USB support. Even with a USB 3+ card, a lot of motherboards and CPU's can only reach USB 2 speeds. If all you're doing is data transfer etc - or even loading levels on emulation.... its worth being aware of. Its a fun project, but don't get over excited. Pushing old kit to still work is definitely worth while, especially for servers etc. BUT.... if you actually want a usable PC for not much money, look at Refurbs and Mini's, around the £150-250 mark - they hit all the bells and perform to modern standards. That said, I have an offline-only old P4 4.2Ghz Windows XP system purely for retro gaming, and I love it.

Supposedly the Athlon 64 gained LAHF/SAHF support as soon as the first X2 dual core models were released in May of 2005, which would make it over half a year older than the P4 6x1 still. Might be worth checking out in another video if Win 11 only requires MMX, SSE/2/3 and some sorta 64 bit extension set (EM64T for Intel, AMD64 for AMD) otherwise. Undoubtedly the Pentium will be the slower of the two however, what a pile of trash Netburst was.

[@RowanBird779]

Well... Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit *didn't* work on my Opteron 165 and that CPU was released in August of 2005 to my knowledge, that CPU does have 2 cores and is technically AMD64. I did however get Windows 10 32-bit to install on there, and it's surprisingly usable

[@rlgsofficial]

@@SaanMigwell You can get past the TPM requirement by getting a Windows 11 ISO and flashing it onto a USB stick with Rufus, it automatically gives an option to disable the minimum system requirements, but you could also edit the registry like it was shown in this video.

According to windows 11 latest intel's decade old Pentium 4 CPU is supported by windows 11. however, Microsoft has not released an official list of CPUs that can run windows 11. instead, they have provided minimum system requirements for windows 11, which include a processor that is 1 gigahertz ghz or faster with 2 or more cores on a compatible 64-bit processor or system on a chip (SoC).

[@KrashFries]

could you try athlon next? the athlon x64 came out in 2003 and the 64 x2 came in 2005, so they're even older.

[@GGigabiteM]

The reason that the Pentium 4 6x1 had limited motherboard support is because it was released at the very end of the Pentium 4's lifecycle. Intel made it more as a test of their new 65nm node than as a marketable product. The 6x1 used the Cedar Mill core, which was basically a die shrunk Prescott-2M core. By the time the Cedar Mill P4s came out, every Pentium 4 only chipset was a year or more old. Many motherboard manufacturers didn't bother making BIOS updates with the required microcode to support the newer CPUs. There wasn't much interest in doing so because Core 2 was just 6 months off and people were so fed up with the garbage that was the Pentium 4 that nobody was buying them. The Cedar Mill P4s though did have one good use, upgrading terribly designed Dell SFF machines like the SX280, or GX280 SFF. Dell had the grand idea of putting 95-115W CPUs in a tiny case with zero ventilation and wondered why they lost billions in class action lawsuits over them baking to death. The D0 stepping 6x1 processors had a 65W TDP and ran MUCH cooler and put significantly less strain on the power supplies of those machines, making them a lot more reliable. The sSpec of those starts with SL9K_. Replace _ with G = 631, F = 641, E = 651. Luck runs out on the 661 though (SL9KD), as it's an 86W part. If you want guaranteed support for these late P4's, you'll need a motherboard with a 965 or 30 series chipset (P31, G31/33, P35, Q33/35). Intel officially dropped Netburst support on 30 series chipsets, but most motherboards still supported them.

Why do you think installing 64 bit OSwith 2GB of RAM is a facepalm? 1.32bit vs 64-bit is not only about RAM 2.32bit won't support 4GB or more, but it doesn't mean 64bit won't support less than 4GB 2.64bit software uses more memory due to pointer sizes, but this is only couple percent more.

[@rodrigofilho1996]

There is a problem with your install metod, 630 and 631 have the same instruction support, Cedar Mill was just 65nm version of Prescott 2M, anything Cedar Mill runs, Prescott 2M will run too.

[@techobottr]

Because the 90nm older 630 and 640 CPU’s are lacking the instruction set CMPXCHG16B which is compulsory since Windows 8.1. Also that’s the reason why the CPU can’t utilize more than 4gb ram even if it runs on 64-bit.

[@Hadisabetghadam]

Since 2012, when Windows 8 came out, Microsoft increased Two of the requirements for running newer Windows such as Windows 8, one of which is the support of LAHF/SAHF in 64-bit mode And CMPXCHG16B, which is also required to run Windows 11. I hope Windows 12 does not fulfill one of its requirements What Is The LAHF/SAHF in 64-bit mode And CMPXCHG16B? The LAHF and SAHF load and store the contents of the AH register into the flags register, respectively (Intel Instruction Set Reference, PDF pages 530 and 1025). Some older Intel processors without hardware virtualization (VT-x) functionality do not support this instruction when running in 64-bit long mode; these are mostly limited to certain low-end processors predating Nehalem. Some very old AMD64 processors also lack this feature. Early AMD64 processors lacked the CMPXCHG16B instruction, which is an extension of the CMPXCHG8B instruction present on most post-80486 processors. Similar to CMPXCHG8B, CMPXCHG16B allows for atomic operations on octal words. This is useful for parallel algorithms that use compare and swap on data larger than the size of a pointer, common in lock-free and wait-free algorithms. Without CMPXCHG16B one must use workarounds, such as a critical section or alternative lock-free approaches. Its absence also prevents 64-bit Windows prior to Windows 8.1 from having a user-mode address space larger than 8 terabytes. The 64-bit version of Windows 8.1 requires the instruction.

Everything is relevant to the operating system and what your board can accommodate. Windows Vista works best on a board that is designed to host the operating system. It is easy to check your boards operation system limitations. Each board will list this.All microsoft systems will display this. Vista will not work on newer computer boards. There is no fix to this because it is past the limit of technology for the time. Even if you manage to get it installed it will not work properly. You can not mix new with the old, it will not work. I am currently running XP, Vista, Win 7 win 10, win 11 Linux Ubuntu. You can run all of these systems, but you have to have the native environment to do so. A computer for each system.

[@yvs6663]

ok. but what about the slowest? whip out an old netbook with 1GB of ram and try if it runs?

[@jaiverma8958]

Hey bro I am using windows 7 in my ho laptop and my driver of wifi is missing I have tried to download it from hp officials, third party websites, driverpack solutions software but it didn't worked for me , according to you what should I do next

[@100Bucks]

Use another computer and flash a USB stick with tiny 11 using Rufus program. Then stick the flash drive in your windows 7 pc in the boot menu. This fixed my wifi issue. Upgraded from windows 10 to windows 11. Upgrading to tiny 11 will fix the wifi.

[@quadbecky14]

If 100Bucks solution doesn't work you can buy an usb internet adapter.

well my last two gaming computer I had,Where brought back in the year 2020,Was 4 years ago,They did not like Windows 11,Just went as far as Windows 11 setup and wont load,Ive upgraded my gaming computers now

[@jimmydandy9364]

INCORRECT - even though Windows 11 can run on much older CPUs than official requirements - these official requirements were made like this because of the support for TPM 2.0 which those old CPUs do not support. Micro$oft wants people to feel "SECURE" bullshit, so only CPUs that support TPM 2.0 - I have a 13th gen Intel process which does support TPM 2.0 and even so I disable all that SHIT and core isolation SHIT anyway, I prefer to rely on 3rd party software for my security than Micro$oft's built in shit.

It was interesting seeing Windows 11 run on much older hardware, but IDK about “without any issues”. You need to make modifications to the registry to get it to run, and you only showed the OS running (and using as much as 60% of the CPU cycles). Can you actually do anything on that system?

[@RamtechENG]

I’m not sure you need to do something. Everything is working like on any other PC. But I think some software may not run because of CPU

[@StolenJoker84]

@@RamtechENG I only bring that up because the point of having a computer is to use it. It’s great that one can get a modern OS to run on such old hardware, but what would the point be if you can’t use the system? I’m not trying to be negative, just speaking from the experience of daily driving a computer designed for Windows 98 that I managed to get XP working on. It was barely usable for browsing the internet and nothing else.

as an aside, just because 'ancient' cpus can, doesn't mean all boards can. i've got a bunch of older hardware that in theory can, but the bios/cipset doesn't let the installer run. notably all my old nc6400 laptops (which have core 2 duo's that are 64bit capable), and a few p4 boards i have (with some spare p4 641s which have the required instruction set). the installer just doesn't start. blinking cursor of doom. in spite of the cpus having the proper LAHF/SAHF support in 64-bit mode. even if the cpu supports it, the chipset or bios may be preventing it. which is sad. there's going to be some mix and match needed if you're trying to put 11 on an old set of hardware. so you may need to find other bios files to flash, or a different board in some cases, after verifying your cpu has the right 64bit support.

[@uccoffee]

630 should have 64bit instruction set, how come it doesnt work ? I thought the 1st 64 bit is P4 620

[@techobottr]

Because the 90nm older 630 and 640 CPU’s are lacking the instruction set CMPXCHG16B which is compulsory since Windows 8.1. Also that’s the reason why the CPU can’t utilize more than 4gb ram even if it runs on 64-bit.

[@jritechnology]

I looked in my parts bin and of course I had a P4 630, NOT a 631....

[@RamtechENG]

Me too. 631 was not my CPU :)

[@mikegord]

Installed W11 via Rufus+ISO+USB on Intel N2490. i5 2640. powered computers Works OK.

[@معاويةالوحيدي-ث7ك]

Did it explode ??

[@moizwaheed2023]

Nah bro. You shouldn’t have said did it explode when you watched a video of 8K

[@deadlyhuman7233]

they were not made in china

[@UnkownUsel]

depends on what kind of pentium you have but if it can run atleast 144 - 720p you have the all clear

[@dionhamzallari-lh7ur]

i have the problem after windows 11 setup installes the files . it shows BSOD with the error code watchdog

[@antonisautos8704]

Wonder how installing it on unsupported hardware effects updates and security...

[@quran.teachess]

5k likes now run games on it!

[@GTAManRCR]

This mobo has a Realtek LAN controller right? Check if Windows 11 will boot when you don't connect the Ethernet cable

[@nahventure3873]

can someone explain to me why this cpu is as follows on passmark: Average CPU Mark rating 295 Single Thread Rating: 664 How is the CPU mark lower than the single core? I thought it was usually (almost) a sum of the total cores doing all the work. eg. 8700k is 13.7k passmark while single core is 2.7k math says 2.7k * 6 = around 16k which isnt that far off the total score I guess?
