I think that a lot of hardware which "does not support" Windows 11 actually does after BIOS/UEFI update or reconfiguration. I myself had 2 such examples from like 20 computers in the company.
- A board with AMD Ryzen needed to fTPM enabled
- A different board from Gigabyte I think had wonky Secure Boot support, but after BIOS update everything worked just alright and Windows 11 has installed itself without a problem.
Same for my parents - one of their desktops that they were going to leave on Windows 10 needed to have tpm and secure boot turned on in bios and suddenly it was Windows 11 compliant.
It might be a little sketchy for some, but you can patch the .iso to remove the TPM requirement and get Windows 11 to install on non-compliant computers. I forgot where to download the patch from, it was from some GitHub page I found on the internet. I have done it so on my ancient desktop with Intel i5-3750K without issues.
