Product: HP Pavilion All-in-One - 24-b208a

I have a 7 year old HP All in one 24 b208a Desktop. It is running Windows 10. Can the i5 processor be upgraded/swapped to one which supports Windows 11?

Hi:

 

Your PC's motherboard does not support any processors that meet Microsoft's minimum W11 processor requirements of an Intel 8th generation core or newer.

 

HP Pavilion 24-b208a All-in-One Desktop PC Product Specifications | HP® Support

 

Processor upgrade information

  • TDP: 35 W
  • Socket type: LGA 1151
  • Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:
    Processor
    TDP
    Integrated Graphics
    Intel Core i7-7700T (Kabylake) 2.9 GHz Quad Core
    35 W
    Intel HD Graphics 630
    Intel Core i5-7400T (Kabylake) 2.4 GHz Quad Core
    35 W
    Intel HD Graphics 630
    Intel Core i3-7100T (Kabylake) 3.4 GHz Dual Core
    35 W
    Intel HD Graphics 630
    Intel Pentium G4560T (Kabylake) 2.9 GHz Dual Core
    35 W
    Intel HD Graphics 610

     

    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 22H2/22H3

     

    You have to use the version of the Rufus utility that I zipped up and attached in the discussion (v3.18).

    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.
