The only way to upgrade your PC to W11 would be to use a workaround.

 

You can try this method first to do an in-place upgrade:

 

How to Install Windows 11 on Unsupported PC in 2025 (New Easiest Method, No CMD)

 

If that doesn't work you will have to clean install W11 by making a bootable USB installation flash drive with Rufus and check the applicable boxes to bypass the hardware checks.

 

Windows 11 24H2 Install on Unsupported Hardware with Rufus

 

When you create the Rufus installation media, you need to select the MBR partition scheme, not GPT.
