forget upgrades .. just download original W11 ISO from Microsoft and burn it via RUFUS, fresh install and login with your existing Microsoft Account for automated activation .. done!

yes, i think all new pc supports UEFI.
and yes, i use MBR method in RUFUS (got only one method anyway)
*


for my laptop, I can only burn using MBR since the lappy is over 15 years old and doesnt support TPM & Secure Boot .. Rufus have 2 burning method;

GPT -> UEFI non-CSM (this method only works on newer model computer mainboards)

MBR -> BIOS or UEFI (this method works on all old and new computer mainboards but Windows will run on lower performance)

the rufus i downloaded can only choose UEFI non-CSM
and yes, based on the screen from ur replies, i have applied identical setting in rufus i created the usb installation media

its funny that ure Rufus shows only one option biggrin.gif

Download latest Rufus https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/releases/d.../rufus-4.5p.exe

u r right, i stand corrected, i am too tired for solving this and caused me looking at wrong selection

anyway, last try today, using MBR method...but still i think its gigabyte bios/uefi problem
*


dont trouble ureself instead going back on recovery sections which never ends .. just follow basic Microsoft ISO + Rufus burning method and freshly install smile.gif

see mine got MBR & GPT option .. even u can bypass TPM requirements if want ..
