Has anyone tried windows 11 install? Just done it and it works very well.
The problem is Microsoft have warned users that there will be no support
Its about time the admin forces Acepc to release the bios upgrade

"Hello,
So sorry for delayed response and thank you for your watting.
I have confirmed with our technicians that GK3 can be upgraded to WIN 11 by reinstalling the system, but we cannot provide a BIOS update to achieve the upgrade.
Regards,

If you install Windows 11 using thé Iso you wont have security updates, Who want that, seriously !

Its not straight forward installing windows 11, you need to add a few lines whilst booting. Its not worth the hassle.
I did manage to do a Ak1, but that had secure boot, but needed a cpu bypass.
People shouldn't need to do these hacks, secure boot has been in the bios for years, and was once in the GK3 bios

Upgraded my AK3 to the public release of Windows 11 on Tuesday, went through without a hitch, I'm really annoyed that GK3 cant be upgraded because ACEPC won't do a BIOS upgrade to support secure boot when it really ought to just come with secure boot enabled. I only bought this pc 3 months ago, I feel cheated.

How did you manage to install the public release? I have an AK3V model, but with no SECURE BOOT in BIOS.
Thanks

Does anyone have an old bios to downgrade the bios to the version that had the secure boot?

This is strange, goto 4 mins 25 seconds into the review and when the bios is displayed The two setting we are requesting are in the review
FTPM and secure boot are there

Very bad ACEPC, we need a BIOS update. Will rain a lot of bad reviews in Amazon and others.
