00:01:00 Creating a qcow2 file for Windows 11. 00:02:10 Running the virtual machine. 00:03:30 Installing the virtio storage driver. 00:06:10 Installing Windows 11 onto the disk. 00:07:50 Time to boot into the main setup. 00:09:00 Going through the setup with no TPM error. 00:11:10 An error comes up during the setup, but a reboot fixes it. 00:12:25 Installing the virtio network driver. 00:15:50 Installing the QXL graphics driver. 00:17:40 Installing a browser ro check the networking. In this video I am installing Windows 11 into Qemu and am showing how to install the virtio drivers, so that the disk accesses can be fast. This is also a Windows 11 that has had the hardware check removed, which shows that none of the standard code in it, actually needs the TPM. This shows that Microsoft has decided to switch to doing things like Apple, where they make up some lame excuse for why their next version of their operating system, needs some random hardware feature that is only in the newer computers that are sold. They know full well that the older machines will still be able to run their operating systems, but they are taking a part in the biggest scam of the whole world, which is the stock market, where their share price is dependent on how much profit they make, so they are encouraged by it to use any means that they can, in order to make as much money as they can, while not caring about if those old machines then end up in a land fill, or even in the Pacific ocean. Below is the link to the virtio drivers:

Below is the command line that I used:
