That should be interesting. The problem with Windows 11 on older
hardware is the insistence upon a TPM-2.0 compliant TPM. There have
been some fitful work-arounds when a 1.2 TPM is installed, but with no
TPM hardware I seriously doubt you can convince that steaming pile of
crap to install, particularly since they seem to have decided to store
the BitLocker keys in the TPM.
This just seems like reason 1E+32 to avoid the Windows ecosystem when
possible.

"Mr. McKittrick, after careful consideration…"
Is there ANY
reason why windows N can't work with legacy drivers from
Windows N-1?
For what it's worth, Windows 10 runs fine on an IBM Thinkpad X61 in 64
bit mode with no issues. 2007 system means it's running fine 19 years
later. I should fire it up and upgrade to Windows 11.....
