My PC is an HP Omni 200 5420. Intel core i5 CPU. The BIOS Amercian Megatrends Inc 6.16 24/03/2011. It does not have a UEFI so I can not install Windows 11. Can I upgrade the BIOS to be able to install Windows 11 ? How?

There is nothing you can do to make your PC meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements.
Even if your PC had a UEFI BIOS, it does not support secure boot, have a TPM 2.0 security chip or an Intel 8th generation Core processor, which are additional W11 hardware requirements.
If you are happy with your PC, and if you are interested in installing W11 24H2 on your PC as is, watch this video, which is the easiest way to do it in my opinion, and I have tried many different ways to do this during the last 3 years.
Skip the part where he tells you how to get the 24H2 insider preview ISO file.
Use the latest one from the Microsoft website link that I posted below the video link.
How to install Windows 11 24H2 on Unsupported PC (Early Access) 2024 (youtube.com)
Download the W24H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).
Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)
You can download the free 7-Zip file utility from the link below. The top line is for 64 bit.
You'll have to repeat this procedure each October when Microsoft rolls out the new builds because a PC that does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements will never automatically get the update to the next build.
Other than that, your PC will continue to get the monthly cumulative and other updates.
That's only a minor inconvenience to have continued OS support beyond October of 2025.
