Can I upgrade my processor from Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.70 GHz to something that will run windows 11?

Unfortunately, that would not be possible.

 

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 can download the free 7-Zip file utility from the link below.  The top line is for 64 bit.

 

7-Zip

 

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.

 

Other than that, your PC will continue to get the monthly cumulative and other updates.

 

That's only a minor inconvenience to have continued OS support beyond October of 2025.

 

I'm running W11 24H2 on a HP 350 G1 notebook that has an i3-4005U processor.

 

Works fine.
