How do I get factory software for my computer after upgrading to Win 7?

There was a pernicious virus on my system, and it wouldn't allow me to upgrade my Vista to Win 7, so I had to do a Win 7 fresh install. The problem is now that I don't have the non-driver, non-HP Update software that came with my computer; most essentially, the program to create labels and use my Lightscribe DVD Writer. How do I get those? I tried the HP Drivers & Software page for my computer model, but it only installed HP Update (and that didn't find any updates). So any idea how I can get the software/drivers for Lightscribe, as well as other software that came with the system? (Not necessarily the free trials to stuff; I don't need those)

You'll need this software as a start:  Lightscribe
