Acer Predator Orion 9000-600 Window 11 upgrade, After initial install they all have blue screen

Hi.

I,m trying to upgrade my Acer Predator Orion 9000-600 which I bought new in 2019 to windows 11. I,ve tried multiple versions of windows 11, however after initial install they all cause a bleu screen. I also tried removing all hard disks and putting a new hard disk (NVME) in the pc and the install windows 11. However I keep getting blue screens describing nultiple devices which cause blue screens however there aren`t any strandge devices and or usb devices in the pc anymore other than how it was delivered in 2019.

Anybody else have experience and or troubles with upgrading to windows 11 ?

Yeah, Acer hasn't released a driver package for the PO9-600 models and Windows 11, which usually means there's something in the hardware that doesn't have updated drivers available. Try taking picture of the BSODs. Also, which BIOS are you running? IIRC the R01-A4 version had some low level fixes for a newer W10 upgrade, so it might also be required for W11.

I,m running the R01-A4 version (latest). There are many sorts of blue screens. irq,s less or equal, pfm reference counts, irql gt zero at system, pfn list corrupt, etc. However none of them let me install windows 11 on the system. It does seem to be on the supported Windows 11 update list.

The CPU and chipset support W11, but there are likely components on the motherboard that don't. Otherwise Acer would have released a W11 driver package for it. :(
