 Checking my My HP ProBook 455 G3 laptop for Windows 11 upgrade, I see that it is, in fact, compatible in all respects but for the  CPU.  Installed microprocessor  is an AMD A10-8700P Radeon R6. Is it possible to swap this out for a newer model.  If so, which one would be appropriate for the motherboard in my computer?  Thanks for any advice?

None of the motherboards in the 455 G3 support the Ryzen 3xxx series processors which are the minimum mobile processor that meets Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements.

If you are interested in installing W11 24H2 on your PC as is, watch this video:

 

How to install Windows 11 24H2 on Unsupported PC (Early Access) 2024 (youtube.com)

 

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

 

Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

 

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.
