Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to find out if I can upgrade my workstation  HP Z230 SFF Workstation to Windows 11 and Microsoft Windows 11 PC health checker states the processor is not supported by Windows 11.

My processor is a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 v3 @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s).   Any ideas will be appreciated.

Hi:

 

You could try one of the W11 hardware check bypass methods to install W11, such as this.

 

Windows 11 22H2: Upgrade unsupported hardware - YouTube

 

That would be your only option...

 

The above video worked fine for me on 3 PC's and on 3 it did not.

 

There is also a way to clean install W11 22H2 on your PC if the in-place upgrade hack fails to work.

 

I had to do that for the 3 PC's where the in-place upgrade hack did not work.
