Drivers for Windows 11 in Notebook with Windows 10.

[Pyziulkaa__12--]

Hello. I have an HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 with Windows 10 and Intel core i5 7th. I wanted to upgrade to Windows 11, but I'm not sure if the Windows 10 drivers will even work. Please help. Best regards, Daniel.

Hi:

Since the notebook is not supported by Microsoft to run W11, no drivers were developed for it.

The only way you are going to find out if W11 will work or not is to try it out and see.

If you are happy with your PC, and if you are interested in installing W11 24H2 via an in-place upgrade on your PC as is, watch this video, which is the easiest way to do it in my opinion, and I have tried many different ways to do this during the last 3 years.

Download the W24H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).

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

You'll have to repeat this or a similar 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.

If things don't work right on W11, you have 10 days to easily go back to W10 as long as you don't delete the W1 upgrade files or the Windows.old folder.
