Hi:

 

Your notebook does not meet any of the hardware requirements to run W11, and there are no upgrades that can be performed to make it W1 capable.

 

If you want to install W11 on your notebook, 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 trying to 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.
