    Blue Iris OS Options

    I have two HP Compaq Elite 8300 CMT PCs (among several others running w10 that are pre TPM 2.0), one of them is a dedicated BI machine, both running W10. They both have 32G Ram and are i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz, but it has a TPM 1.2 module that cannot be addressed by a firmware update, according to...

    Blue Iris OS Options

    It's a tit for tat - Hardware vendors will continue to license and preload Windows software on their machines IF MS will "do something" (ie, TPM 2.0 requirement) to stimulate hardware sales. What else could it really be?

    Blue Iris OS Options

    No ill effects from running W11 on a "non-compliant" pre TPM 2.0 module machine. Hm. What's wrong with this picture? So then, MS's requirement for TPM 2.0 is bogus, aside from the notion that W11 may make use of it if it's available., which is exactly as it should be, except that MS doesn't...

    Fascinating - are you getting updates, etc. as would be expected and do you notice anything that isn't working in W11? Any ill-effects from not having TPM 2.0? btw, I agree 100% about MS's requirement for TPM 2.0 - it's as if they're intentionally trying to lose customers. Seems like it would...

    From Grok 3: (By the way, if you haven't tried Grok 3, you should give it a go - it's incredible - you can get to it via X on the left-hand menu halfway down or https://grok.com/) Microsoft has not officially dropped the TPM 2.0 requirement for Windows 11. As of the latest updates in December...

    Excellent list BigRedfish, thanks. Tucker Carleson said that there was some unknown force that was keeping the lid on all this disclosure. I think he must be right, else we'd already have the documents (et. al) ... unredacted. But noooo, we can't handle the truth.... evidently. The fallacy in...

    UFOs, Extraterrestrials, Advanced Technology and Other Associated Weirdness

    1. I appreciate and get that the current administration is taking care of urgent business. 2. Taking care of urgent business does not preclude releasing presidential executive ordered released documents such as the JFK files. 3. There is a small window of expectation in which things we were all...

    Gunshot Detection?

    Some moron (drunk, high, or just inconsiderate and stupid) seems to enjoy emptying a clip at 2 AM somewhere within earshot. Woke me from a sound sleep Sunday morning with a rapid succession of 9 shots. It was loud, but difficult to pinpoint where it came from. At the time I thought about...

    President Trump said that he'd publish a report on the recent drone/ufo sightings (mainly) over NJ within the first few days. He's busy taking care of business (erasing DEI is wonderful), but I hope he doesn't forget about it.

    What makes you believe Windows 11 will be any different in that respect?

    Blue Iris OS Options

    Going to Windows Update: ...and clicking Check hardware requirements eventually leads to a link that downloads a PC Health Check app that indicates that I have the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 and that 2.0 is required. It is possible that some PCs TPM can be firmware upgraded, but...

    Good points - yeah, it's a dedicated BI machine, nothing else, so I'll just stick with Windows 10. Thanks for the help!

    Blue Iris OS Options

    Hey folks - I did some searching but didn't see anything obvious (to me anyway) regarding OS options in which to run Blue Iris. If this has already been covered, my apologies. For a good while now, I've been running Blue Iris in a Windows 10 environment, but as we're all aware Microsoft will...
