Hi

 

Yes, HP has Windows 10 drivers and software for your PC.

 

You can check it out here.

 

You can also still (this option may have closed) get Windows 10 free with your PC's Windows 7 or 8.1 product key.

 

Windows 7 HP PC's usually have the product affixed to the COA sticker on the side chassis panel.

 

Windows 8.1 HP PC's have the product key embedded in the BIOS. A Windows 10 upgrade installation should see the Windows 8.x product key located in the BIOS.

 

You can also use this program to find the product key.
