Not able to install Windows 11

I have the Precision 7510 64g ram, Xeon 1505m v5 cpu . I have done the check to see if I can run Win 11 and comes back saying processor invalid. When I go to the windows site and check for the processor it shows it on the list. What gives?????

I'm not sure where you're seeing it as a supported CPU, since it uses a Skylake (6th generation) core.  Windows 11 supports a very few 7th gen CPUs (one later than yours) but for the most part requires an 8th generation CPU for full support.

The full list of supported CPUs is here -- unless I missed something, the 1505m V5 is not on it.  You may in fact be able to run Windows 11 -- for now.  Microsoft has publicly stated that future updates to Windows 11 may enforce the support list.  When that happens, Windows 11 will reach end of the road for your system.
