Product: HP Elite Slice G2 - Audio Ready with Microsoft Teams Rooms
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all,

We have a fleet of HP Elite Slice G2 MS SRS Audio Ready devices.
We would like to understand if these devices can be upgraded manually to Windows 11.
And if so, would they still be supported by HP . ?

Hi:

 

The processors do not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements of an Intel 8th gen or newer core processor.

The PC's should be able to run W11 but you will not be able to get support for that OS from Microsoft or HP because they don't meet the hardware requirements.

 

If you are happy with the PCs, and if you are interested in doing an in-place upgrade from W10 > W11 24H2 on the PCs 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.

 

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

 

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

 

Download Windows 11

 

You can download the free 7-Zip file utility from the link below. The top line is for 64 bit.

 

7-Zip

 

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.

 

If the PC does not work as well on W11 as it did on W10, you have 10 days to easily go back to W10 as long as you don't delete the W11 upgrade files or the Windows.old folder.

 

See option 1 at the link below for how to go back to W10:

Hello @AdamM-HDA ,

 

Welcome to the HP Poly community.

 

I am pretty sure neither our partner Microsoft nor HP support will be able to support you running an OS on a machine that does not have the specs to run this.

 

Best Regards
