Hi. Is there a trick/way to make T3600 suitable for installing W11? Currently, I can't see the "Secure Boot" option in BIOS settings and have TPM 1.2 with Intel Xeon E5-1650 0 @ 3.20Ghz processor. Also, I can select the UEFI option in the Boot Sequence tab, but it can't find any OS while starting the PC.
The problem is more than Secure Boot (though I believe the T3600 does not have the capability of Secure Boot having been introduced with Windows 7). You have TPM 1.2 and an unsupported CPU. So if you do manage to install Windows 11 on your system you will not receive updates from MS. It is not clear which updates you would not receive but you would run in an unsupported mode.
And this video describes the waiver you would have to agree to upon installation.

@speedstep Personally I would clean install anyway. Rather than have the update on top of Windows 10 I am one for wiping everything and starting fresh.

The problem with clean install is that Apps that I actually use go away like Skype, MSPAINT, etc. Lots of deprecated features with every clean install of windows. I didn't lose anything because I know how to reinstall 10 clean then upgrade to 11 keeping things like skype intact.
Feature deprecations and removals
When upgrading to Windows 11 from Windows 10 or when installing an update to Windows 11, some features may be deprecated or removed. Please see below for information regarding some of the key features impacted:

for organizations to deliver customized Start and Taskbar experiences are limited:
Start supports the ability for organizations to override the Start layout, but does not support locking down the layout from user modification.
Taskbar pins and ordering can be controlled by organizations.

The following apps will not be removed on upgrade but will no longer be installed on new devices or when clean-installing Windows 11. They are available for download from the Store:
Microsoft recommends against installing Windows 11 on a device that does not meet the Windows 11 minimum system requirements. If you choose to install Windows 11 on a device that does not meet these requirements, and you acknowledge and understand the risks, you can create the following registry key values and bypass the check for TPM 2.0 (at least TPM 1.2 is required) and the CPU family and model.
Note: Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
