Try setting the screen to extend mode when you close the lid, use Windows key + P and select the Second screen only option.

Found this which may address your issue. "Starting from June 2022, GPU is not showing on the task manager anymore even if your GPU driver is WDDM 2.0 or above, to enable GPU data in the Task Manager again, follow the steps below: Enter Windows PowerShell in Windows Search and click on Run as...

This is the newest official disclaimer from MS on installing/upgrading a non supported PC to Windows 11. "This PC doesn't meet the minimum system requirements for running Windows 11 - these requirements help ensure a more reliable and higher quality experience. Installing Windows 11 on this PC...
