Your PC's processor does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements and no W11 drivers exist for your PC.

Install W10 by making a bootable USB installation flash drive with the media creation tool from the link below:

Download Windows 10

After W10 has completed installing, you can download the drivers and available software from your PC's support page.

If you are interested in installing W11 on your PC...

You can update to the latest build of W11 by watching the video at the link below, which is the easiest way to do an in-place upgrade to W10 in my opinion, and I have tried many different ways to do this during the last 3 years.

Download the W24H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).

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 or a similar 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.
