There are a lot of videos out there on how to install windows 11 on an incompatible computer that you can view in addition to the one I posted above.

It's easy, really just a few steps. Here's a video that I followed. https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+use+flyby11&client=tablet-android-samsung-rvo1&sca_esv=2388371dc08fac3b&udm=7&biw=812&bih=793&sxsrf=AE3TifP2myosmYL2sqCBGbOnNAUY_nUzsQ%3A1755729333602&ei=tU2maOnDJMWKwbkPo8PAmQg&oq=how+to+use+flyby&gs_lp=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&sclient=gws-wiz-modeless-video#fpstate=ive&ip=1&vld=cid:9db232e9,vid:R3QaP2X3QoU,st:0

I wanted to thank everyone who responded to my post about upgrading to Windows 11 Pro on an unsupported computer. I ended up using the utility called FlyBy11 at https://github.com/builtbybel/flyby11, It worked great on my HP Z820 Zion machine that i use for music production with Sonar. I had no problems and everything seems to be working fine. On my HP Envy laptop it worked up to at point, but it stopped loading windows 11 at 31%. I tried several time. I am not sure why it gets stuck at 31% every time, but not too concerned about it as it is working great on my desktop, and I may replace the laptop with a new one anyway as I have been having problems with the headphone out, and the screen seems like it is getting dim.

Okay thanks, I will try

I am trying my laptop first before risking mt z480 using flyby11. It seemed to be working, but is stuck at 31%. I am trying to work through it. Have you heard about flyby11? It allows you to get around the incompatible issue. Thanks Frank

Thanks, I will google it. Frank

I am running Sonar on an HP Z820 with 128 GB Ram, CPUES-2680 @ 2.70GHz, with 2Processors. with 4 large Had Drives. I just found out that my HP Z820 is not compatible to update to Windows 11 Pro because the TPM 1.2 and Windows 11 needs 2.0, and also that my processor is not compatible even though Windows 11 only needs 1GHz, and my HP Z820 is way above that at 2.7GHz. I am just wondering if it would be better buy a new computer now with Windows 11 Pro installed or try to keep working with Windows 10 Pro on my HP ZION HP Z820. If I were to get a new or refurbished computer what should I get that will be somewhat comparable with what I have. Or do I even need something that powerful. There is a computer gut her in town who says he may be able to use a special installer and pass the problem with the TPM, and processor problem so I can update Windows 11 Pro, but I read online that that may be a problem for updates as they are released. Any suggestion on what to do here or what computer I could get that could compare is much appreciated. Maybe I don't need anything as powerful as I currently have? I am thinking maybe I should just keep running Windows 10 Pro, but I am concerned about security updates etc.. Thank You!

Tha k you for the information! Frank

In the old version in one of the pull down menus where I was able to create sections using the markers that showed up in the track arranger on the side menu. I don't see where you can create the sections from the markers in the new Free Sonar. I'm I just missing it somewhere or is this only available in the new purchased Sonar? How do I do this in this new Free Sonar version? NEVER MIND ON THIS. I FOUND IT. YOU HAVE TO SELECT ALL FIRST, THEN YOU GET THE OPTION WHEN YOU RIGHT CLICK ON THE SELECTED AREA ABOVE. Thanks, sorry for any confusion. I haven't used this feature for a while. Frank

I thought I had it fixed. I had updatd the firmware on the Personus Studio 24c even though it said it was up to date it allowed me to update anyway. It updated. I turned off my computer and restarted it. It worked great! I finished mixing the song I was working on. I put the computer to sleep, and put myself to sleep. This morning I woke up the computer, and accidentally went to the old bandlab instead of the new one and I heard the noise again thought the speakers. The old bandlab came up with a message of no audio outputs assignment. I tried to close it, but it hung up not responding. I finally got it to close, and opened the new Sonar cakewalk which was crackling again. I closed it, and turned off the computer, restarted, and the crackling is gone. I am not sure what this means, but I am suspicious of the old bandlab software 🤔 as this has happened twice. I will work more with it today to see what happens. I'll post to let you know. Any thoughts on this?

I did more testing. I exported a file and put it into dropbox and it plays fine on my phone. I changed the audio output to the computer speaker, and it is fine. I used my headphones out of the Studio 24c, and it is distorted the same as it is through the main speakers. Apparently it is something to do with the Presonus Studio 24C. I haven't had this very long, but I think it may be the issue.

I am using plugins, but I think I have stumbled upon the problem. It is happening with everything I play through the system, even windows sounds. I am not sure what that could mean? I am trying to figure it out. Any suggestions?

David, thank you for replying to my post. I am now jusing the Presonus Studio 24c. I left the house for most of the day after i tried this morning, and when I came back with the project still open it seems to be working. I think I hear a pop now and then, but nothing like what was going on. I am still concerned about what was going on. I will try some other older projects that I know were working fine and let you know if they have any problems. I will also follow your detailed instructions to see if any of that helps should the problem start again. Frank

I am using the new Sonar free version. I am getting fine crackling noises in my mix. I have tried raising and lowering the buffers in preferences. nothing seems to work. any ideas please! Thank you!
