Kindergartner wants Windows 11

My sweet little autistic kindergartner boy came rushing to me in the kitchen, somewhat alarmed, and said "Papa, I think my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11!". I said "hold on hold on" and quickly picked up my phone and hit record as I've been starting to collect these darling conversations I've been having with him. The video is that recording.

The backstory is that this boy started talking at weeks before 3, and at 4 had figured out to read and write (type) because we had CC on the tv and we gave him access to a computer and fire tablets. We didn't really read to him, teach him ABCs beyond singing them. I'm probably a C+ parent by most scorecards, including tooth brushing. Everything he learns, he learns on his own. Somehow. And each time, to our great surprise.

By May 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic he had already been using computers for 1 year, and with the pandemic in full swing I was itching for solutions to keep him occupied enough that he wouldn't be autistically screaming through all my meetings as I worked from home. So I built him a new computer out of an old case, with a new cheapie small factor motherboard, a Ryzen 5 3600 with an RX580 -- legendary performance for a 4yo's computer. We had it installed on the kitchen island. I used his room for work.

So, in this video, he's a bit upset because he found out that his system doesn't meet the system requirements for Windows 11. He gets strong anxiety and takes things to heart. Well, I know a thing or two about computers and I immediately think it's a TPM thing. 83% of you are like "what is a TPM thing?" And of course, the average person needs not know of TPM and what kinds of grasses it eats in the winter. But somehow this boy already knows about TPM and did what he could, in the BIOS to fix the problem. So he's coming to me as a last resort, after he's exhausted everything else... This kid is trying to fix things in the BIOS, and getting there by "spamming Del" as he says. This is one week after I've had a conversation about not editing the hosts file :D

What am i going to do with this boy? Will anybody teach him?
