Hi! I have a HP ZBook 17 G3 Laptop with the Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz and I'm trying to upgrade it to use Windows 11. I read your post at: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/ZBook-17-G3-Intel-i7-6th-gen-c... . The post indicates that I must purchase a new motherboard and CPU to do the Windows 11 upgrade. The computer works perfectly and I have added RAM and drives. What motherboard and CPU do you suggest to continue using my RAM and other Hardware components? Thank you!

Manual : http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06107030.pdf
Page 1 indicates it does NOT have any CPU/Processor to meet Windows 11 requirements
Therefore new system board or CPU won't help. If you wish, please try
How can I force to install Windows 11 on unsupported PC?
Regards.
