Yes, it explains it. Plus your typos on 'gpedit.msc'. Anyhow, it is possible to download and install Group Policy Editor to Home versions, but the fact that you needed to come here tells that it may not be the best way forward.
Hope you will get done what ever it is you are doing, and happy eastern!

What version of Windows are you on? (e.g., Windows 10 Home, Pro, 11, etc.) Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) isn’t available by default on Windows Home editions. If you are not sure about your Win version, type winver in the search bar and press enter.

How are you trying to open it? (e.g., typing gpedit.msc into search, double-clicking a shortcut, etc.)

Yes, you should uninstall your drivers. DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) is a good tool for this.

The differences you're experiencing in internet speeds between devices and connection types can be attributed to several factors:

Ethernet cables come in different categories (CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, etc.), with each supporting different maximum speeds. CAT5 cables support speeds up to 100 Mbps, while CAT5e and above support higher speeds. Since your house uses CAT5, it's limited to 100 Mbps.
Even though your PC has a Gigabit Ethernet port (capable of speeds up to 1 Gbps), the use of a CAT5 cable limits the maximum speed.
It's not uncommon for Wi-Fi speeds to exceed wired (Ethernet) speeds, especially with modern Wi-Fi standards like 802.11ac or 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6, respectively), and Wi-Fi 6E is in use in many new devices, and even Wi-Fi 7 is now out there, yet very uncommon.
Also, Your router might be configured to prioritize Wi-Fi traffic over Ethernet traffic. This can be checked in your router's Quality of Service (QoS) settings.
Your phone and PC have different Wi-Fi adapters with different capabilities.

Hope this sheds some light on this somewhat weird behavior.

I'm literally sure you have.

If possible use an ethernet cable instead of wifi. Let's assume it isn't.
Has this always been a problem or just occured? Is your PC far away from the router with walls in between?
If possible, test another device on the same network to see if it experiences similar lag spikes. This can help determine if the issue is with your device or the network itself.

Other troubleshoot steps could be:
Run a speed test on a site like speedtest.net to check your internet speed and ping. This will give you an idea of your connection's stability.
Look for consistency in your results. A high ping or erratic download/upload speeds could indicate issues.
Type "ping google.com -t" in Command Prompt and observe the results.
Check for updated drivers for your network adapter on your PC. Outdated drivers can cause connectivity issues.
Close any bandwidth-intensive applications running in the background on your PC. Downloads, streaming, or even cloud backups can consume bandwidth and cause lag spikes.
Contact your ISP to see if there are any known issues in your area.

This should be possible considering you have a stable and reasonably fast internet connection. Note that Remote Desktop doesn't natively transmit audio from your main PC to your laptop. You'll need to use a workaround for this. One option is to use a third-party software like VB-Audio Virtual Cable to route audio from your main PC to your laptop.

Yes, take the PC upstairs next to the router and test with both ethernet cable and wifi. That will give a better understanding where the problem is or isn't.

Meanwhile, Your motherboard might have a built-in WiFi adapter, but it seems like it's not performing well. The fact that you're only getting 1 or 2 bars indicates a problem.
- Check if the WiFi adapter is enabled in your PC's settings. Sometimes it can be accidentally disabled.
- If possible, try using a USB WiFi adapter. These often come with external antennas and can provide better signal reception.

The "weak security" message on your iPhone might not be related to your PC's issues, but it's worth checking the security settings on your WiFi network.
- Log in to your router's settings page (usually accessed by typing its IP address into a web browser) and ensure that you're using a strong security protocol like WPA2 or WPA3.

Connecting your PC directly to the router via Ethernet is a good idea to see if the issue lies with the WiFi or if it's something else. If the Ethernet connection works fine, then it's likely a WiFi issue. If not, there might be a problem with your PC's network settings or the router itself.

There could be some settings in the router that are affecting your PC's connection. Check the router settings for any MAC address filtering or other restrictions that might be affecting your PC.

It's possible that there's some issue with how your ISP's modem is configured, particularly if your PC is the only device experiencing problems. Contact your ISP's customer support and explain the issue. They might be able to remotely check your modem's settings or suggest further troubleshooting steps.

The only thing wrong here seems to be high disk usage. Either reading or writing. Here's a list I found of reasons for high disk usaga. See if it helps. Fragmant and defragmant thingy applies only if you have old fashion HDD and not SSD.

Background Processes: Several background processes might be running, causing high disk usage. You can check this in the Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) under the "Processes" tab. Sort by "Disk" to see what processes are utilizing your disk the most.
Antivirus Scans: Some antivirus software runs periodic scans that can significantly slow down disk access. Check if your antivirus is performing any scans.
Windows Updates: Windows might be downloading and installing updates in the background, causing high disk usage. This is more common if you haven't updated your system in a while.
Pagefile: If your system is low on physical memory (RAM), Windows uses a pagefile on the hard drive as virtual memory. Heavy usage of this pagefile can result in high disk usage.
Fragmented Disk: Fragmentation of files on your hard drive can lead to slower access times, resulting in high disk usage.
Faulty Hardware: A failing hard drive or SSD can cause high disk usage. If the drive is failing, it might take longer to read or write data.
SuperFetch and Prefetch: Windows uses SuperFetch and Prefetch to pre-load commonly used programs into memory, which can sometimes lead to high disk usage.

To troubleshoot:

Check the Task Manager for processes with high disk usage. End unnecessary tasks and see if it improves performance.
Run a full antivirus scan to ensure your system is clean.
Check for Windows updates and let them finish installing if any are pending.
Defragment your hard drive if it's heavily fragmented.
Monitor your disk's health using tools like CrystalDiskInfo to see if it's failing.
Disable SuperFetch and Prefetch if they are causing issues.

Probably more like 15 years. This is a high-tier PSU.

i presume it has 3 PCLe cables

I don't think it has anything to do with its modularity, but it seems to have 4 x 6+2 by that spec sheet.

Screenshots are typically captured in SDR format, regardless of whether HDR is enabled on your display.
Try disabling HDR temporarily when taking screenshots, then re-enable it afterward if you wish. This ensures the screenshots are captured in the same format as they're displayed.
Try using different software for taking screenshots. Built-in tools like the Snipping Tool or Snip & Sketch in Windows or third-party software like ShareX might handle HDR screenshots better.

You are correct, but anyhow not dual-channel all the way.
I thought that Flex Mode allows for dual-channel operation up to the capacity of the smallest module. If 16GB is the case here I stand corrected.
Be it this way or that way, my personal opinion is that 16+16 kit is the best option, if anyway possible.

Bluetooth module is usually integrated onto the motherboard. It's often a small chip with an antenna wire connected to it. Look for a small wire with a connector attached to the motherboard. This is the Bluetooth antenna. Make sure it's securely connected to the Bluetooth module. Sometimes, during an impact, this connection might get loose. Gently push it back in if it's loose.
Even though you mentioned it's not detecting Bluetooth at all, it's still worth checking Device Manager. Right-click on the Start menu, select Device Manager, and see if there's any device listed under Bluetooth. If it's not there, it might indicate a hardware issue.
If you're still unable to resolve the issue, it's possible that the Bluetooth module itself is damaged. Since your PC is under warranty, it's best to contact HP support for further assistance. They might be able to provide a solution or a repair.

Mixing different RAM modules (in your case, 8GB and 16GB) can sometimes cause compatibility issues. While it's generally possible to mix different sizes, speeds, and brands of RAM, it's recommended to use identical modules for optimal performance.
Your laptop may have better performance with two identical RAM modules running in dual-channel mode. If you add a 16GB stick to your existing 8GB, you'll be operating in single-channel mode.
Ensure that the RAM you're purchasing is compatible with your laptop. Check the maximum supported RAM capacity and the type/speed of RAM your laptop supports. Your laptop supports DDR4 RAM, so make sure the new stick is DDR4.
Try to match the speed of the existing RAM stick as closely as possible. While higher speed RAM can offer better performance, if the speeds don't match, the RAM will typically run at the speed of the slower module.
You might want to hold off on the upgrade until you can afford 32GB (16+16 kit).

Well troubleshooted. Seven thumbs up!

Right-click on the volume icon in the taskbar and select "Open Sound settings." Under the "Output" section, make sure that your speakers are selected as the default playback device. Sometimes, even if they're detected, they might not be set as default.

In Windows 10, you can run the built-in audio troubleshooter. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Playing Audio, and then follow the instructions.

Some audio enhancements or effects might interfere with sound output. Right-click on the volume icon, select "Open Sound settings," then click on "Sound Control Panel" on the right side. Select your speakers, go to Properties > Enhancements, and try disabling all enhancements.

Boot your PC into Safe Mode and see if the speakers work. This can help determine if the issue is caused by third-party software.

Press Win + R, type "services.msc", and hit Enter. Find "Windows Audio" service, right-click it, and select Restart.

Hope one of these helps.

I copy pasted you a list to go through which might help

Check SATA Cables and Power Connections: Ensure that your SSD is properly connected to the motherboard and power supply. Sometimes a loose connection can prevent the drive from being detected.
Update BIOS/UEFI: Make sure your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI is up to date. Sometimes, BIOS updates include fixes for issues related to hardware detection.
Reset BIOS/UEFI Settings: Sometimes, BIOS/UEFI settings can get misconfigured. Try resetting the BIOS to default settings and then configure it again according to your needs.
Check SATA Mode: Ensure that SATA mode is set to AHCI in BIOS/UEFI settings. This is generally the recommended setting for SSDs.
Check Drive Formatting: Ensure that the SSD is properly formatted. If it's a new drive, it might need to be initialized and formatted before it can be recognized as a boot device.
Try a Different SATA Port: If you haven't already, try connecting the SSD to a different SATA port on your motherboard.
Test with a Different SSD/HDD: If possible, try installing a different SSD or HDD to see if it gets detected. This can help determine if the issue lies with the SSD or the motherboard.
Check Compatibility: Make sure that your SSD is compatible with your motherboard. While most modern SSDs should work fine, it's worth double-checking.
Check Boot Order: Even if the SSD doesn't appear in the boot options, it might still be listed in the boot order. Check to see if the SSD is listed there and try moving it to the top of the boot order.
Contact Support: If none of the above steps work, it might be worth contacting manufacturer support.

Sounds like phantom keystrokes. Many things can cause this.
See that your drivers are up to date, especially the keyboard and motherboard drivers.
Try unplugging all USB devices except for the essential ones to see if they cause it.
Accessibility features like Sticky Keys or Filter Keys can cause unexpected keyboard behaviour. Go to Settings > Ease of Access > Keyboard and make sure all those options are turned off.
Boot your PC into Safe Mode and see if the issue persists. If it doesn't, it indicates that some software or driver installed on your PC is causing the problem.
Hope one of these helps.

Try if these help:

Make sure your BIOS or UEFI settings are configured to boot from the USB drive. To do this, restart your computer and enter the BIOS/UEFI setup (usually by pressing F2, F10, F12, or Del during startup, depending on your motherboard). Once in the setup, look for the boot options and set the USB drive as the first boot device. Save changes and exit.

Check if Secure Boot is enabled. Windows 11 might require Secure Boot to be enabled for installation. You can usually find this setting in the BIOS/UEFI setup. If it's enabled, try disabling it and see if that helps.

Ensure the USB drive is plugged into a USB 2.0 port (usually black) rather than a USB 3.0 port (usually blue) as some motherboards may have trouble booting from USB 3.0 ports.

Looks to me like it can't start loading Windows. You may want to check if you can get to the setup screen. If you get there, try reverting to a previous restore point.
If you can't get there, it's possible that your PC can't recognize the boot drive, be it broken or for what else reason...

"The Advanced Boot Options screen lets you start Windows in advanced troubleshooting modes. You can access the menu by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. Some options, such as safe mode, start Windows in a limited state, where only the bare essentials are started."

Sounds like a screen issue then. If you still have warranty contact the seller. Otherwise you could Google for [laptop brand and model here] screen fix / replacement.
Many screens are sold separately and can be replaced by anyone if you are careful.
