its come to my knowledge that windows 10 will no longer be supported october 2025 thats next year!

meanwhile we have laptops out there that are still good by todays standards mine is a hp with 8gb ram but has the AMD RADEON A4-9125 CPU - this cpu can not be swapped as there stuck to the MOBO

what im trying to say is october next year all computers with this chipset will become obsolete because of this one issue that dont seem fair us with this specific cpu will be left behind

can microsoft developers please consider a compatibility update for windows 11 to allow us to update to the os while using the amd radeon a4-9125 cpu

theres not much info online other than professionals saying it dont work nobody finding a fix

ive found well over 60+ others with the same issue in 5mins of google searching

PLEASE MICROSOFT FIX THIS ISSUE THE COMMUNITY WILL BE GRATEFUL AS WILL I

MAYBE EVEN ONE OF YOUR INDEPENDENT DEVS COULD DO IT

THANKS_JORDAN.

    Hi,

    My name is Igor, it's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll try to help you.

    Microsoft says: New Windows 11 devices must use... the latest available modern device drivers based on Declarative, Componentized, Hardware Support Apps (DCH) design principles.

    Basing on my experience in contacting with Microsoft developers I suppose some drivers for old CPUs are not based on these principles so some work is required from Intel, AMD, Microsoft to update old processors' drivers and these companies do not want to spend resources for this updating.

    However, you may create a petition to AMD to redesign this CPU drivers.

    And please note, it is possible to install Windows 11 even if a CPU is not supported. See https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ins...

    Please ask other question if you have them.
