Shane_B. Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 See notice at bottom of screenshot. I'm running an Intel i6700K w/16GB RAM and 2 250GB SSD's and it doesn't meet the minimum system requirements for my upcoming forced update to Windows 11. What a C.O.S..

I have my desktop and Studio One and CbB all set to black. Well, Tungsten as CbB calls it. It truly blows switching from anything I'm doing to checking the forums. I immediately get a searing headache and sharp pains in my eyeballs. LOL. I needed a break and I've been buried in my DAW for 10 days now, 16 hour + days. The contrast is starting to get to me. And then I get a message this morning saying, "No joy for you!". LOL. I tell ya, I can't win for losin'. 😁👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DAW pc is Win7 and it still works ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheens Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) but once ye fixed it and have Windows and all the software working....you'll be fine until Windows Update runs me haves an offline DAW pc since Windows 7 / sonar X therefore Edited December 16, 2021 by Sheens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InstrEd Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Me thinks you are being too picky. If Windows wants to update your machine it will assimilate you. Resistance is Futile 😆 And as has been mentioned you did get your dark background so stop your complaining Yes I haven't had my morning cup of coffee yet! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 My cutting edge beast that Jim just made for me says the same thing. You just need to go into BIOS and turn a setting on. That said, WHY IN THE HECK WOULD YOU WANT WINDOWS 11??!!! 😮 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InstrEd Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I have new 2n1 coming that has 11 installed already. Hope it turns out okay. Delivery scheduled for tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I'm not gonna even think about W11 until that zero day exploit is fixed.... https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/36657-windows-11-zero-day-exploit-ms-cant-fix/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resistance is Futile Funny, but sadly not a joke. It's only a matter of time until the day comes when you'll want to upgrade your hardware and Win11 will be the only option. Even if your DAW is permanently offline, eventually you're gonna want some software product that's incompatible with Win7/8/10, or that can't be installed and/or authorized without an internet connection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thought is what sustains me. Also applies to many other troubling modern trends. For example, I hope to be dead before Facebook accounts become a legal prerequisite for official recognition as a human. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bapu Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 My DAW is ready/capable for Win 11 my Web machine is not. Both are online 24/7. My 2012 MacPro is *not* Win 11 ready and never will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc H Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Here, y’all are fretting about on Windows 11. Yet I sitting here dreading the day that intel Macs won’t see support anymore and I’ll be forced to sell a few guitars just to get an M1 MacPro……. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dual Xenon 2012 MacPro won't support the latest update of MODO Bass (and probably thereafter too, I imagine). I refuse to sell any instruments to get an M1. I've got CCs for that 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four legged kids are just way too valuable in the studio to get rid of…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
