CPU upgrade for Pavilion desktop 570-p013wb

[Ute2]

One of my desktops at the office is the HP Pavilion 570-p013wb and I am unable to upgrade to Windows 11, it states that I need to upgrade my CPU. Is this possible with this system and how can I proceed?

Thanks for any help

Hi:

Below is the link to the product specs for your PC.

The processor upgrade info can be found on the above link.

Unfortunately, there are no W11-supported processors that are supported in your PC's motherboard.

If you want to install W11 on your PC, you will have to use one of the several W11 hardware check bypass methods to upgrade to W11.

I found this method to be the easiest way to do that...

Before you upgrade to W11, I recommend that you make a system image of your current W10 installation prior to updating to W11, so you can easily reinstall W10 in the future.  I used the free Macrium Reflect software to do that, under the Backup at Home section. 

Along with the system image, make sure you create the bootable DVD or USB rescue drive you boot from to access the system image stored on your portable hard drive.

Thanks for the response.

You're very welcome.

I upgraded a Dell Optiplex 7050 MT desktop PC to W11 that comes with an Intel i7-7700 processor, and it works better on W11 than it did on W10.
