Unfortunately I don't have a receipt in my email for it because I bought it at MicroCenter, got a really good deal on it. So I can't remember what gen. I think I just need to enable the TPM thingy in the bios, but that it was specifically the processor that was the issue. All this is beyond me, I'm in following instructions mode and not inherent knowledge mode.
A buddy of mine has the same, we bought them together, so I know it'll work, I just need to do the work.
That's probably right, enabling Tpm. I'm still on 10 and will move to Zorin, already have it setup and tested, just haven't moved data over.
