Hi:
The PC does not meet the Microsoft hardware requirements to run W11.
The only way you will be able to install W11 on your PC would be to use one of the W11 hardware check bypass methods to install W11.
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.

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.
