Did the PC Health Check application give any details ?

On the Optiplex 780 with E8400 Core2 Duo, it tells me
the Population Count instruction is missing. And trying
to jam in Windows 11 manually from a DVD, reports the same
thing and the installation stops. I had the 780 out on
the bench a couple weeks ago, and found a text file the
Win11 installation attempt might have left behind.
