Hi,

 

I have a HP Notebook 15-ac126na

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.40 GHz

The windows health check doesn't allow me to upgrade to windows 11. Is there any hardware upgrades I can carry out to make my laptop upgradable to windows 11.

 

I dont know whether the CPU is soldered. it doesn't say anywhere. I would like to know if I can buy some parts and install them to improve the laptop.

 

I know my laptop is quite old but I don't want to throw it away causing more electronic waste.

Does anyone have any advice for me ?

Hi, @jossye 

 

 

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

 

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

 

Download the W23H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).   

 

Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

 

24H2 hasn't been released to the public yet. and if you don't have a W11 PC, you can't get the 24H2 Beta version.
