Product: HP Spectre x360 - 13-4193dx (ENERGY STAR)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Testing indicates my laptop processor/hardware does not support windows 11.  Windows 10 is fully functional, and the laptop is still all I need.  Is there a processor upgrade/kit/ CPU/MB combo or other hardware upgrade that will support win 11?  If so, please suggest part numbers etc.  I am competent and have tools  to install the hardware.   Or is the answer "buy another computer?"   I know win10 will be supported for a few years, but desire the added security of win11.

The first thing is it has 2.5GHz with turbo boost up to 3.1GHz 6th generation Intel Core i7-6500U Dual Core which is NOT upgradable. No available system board which has Intel Gen 8 processor.

 

If you wish, please use the following Guide:
