Hi:
The PC's processor does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements of an Intel 8th generation core processor and the 800 G3 series does not support upgrading to any Intel 8th gen core processors.
If you are interested in installing W11 on your PC as is, you can read this discussion for how I upgraded several HP and Dell notebook and desktop PC's that did not meet the W11 hardware requirements to W11 22H2.
You have to use the version of the Rufus utility that I zipped up and attached in the discussion (v3.18).
Re: Issues upgrading to windows 11 - HP Support Community - 8517912
If the in-place upgrade fails, you should be able to clean install W11 using the bootable W11 installation flash drive you made with Rufus.
I just use this method to install W11 on my HP 800 G3 35W DM PC.
It works fine.
I hope to use the same method to update from W11 22H2 to W11 23H2 when it comes out in October.
Unsupported PC's will never get the next version of W11 via an automatic update.
But my PC gets all of the monthly cumulative and security updates because I check them against a PC I have that fully meets the W11 hardware requirements.
