I have an older hp desktop wchic came originally with a windows 8 os but I upgraded a few years ago to win 10.. the system was slow so I called up microst and they said that I need to get from HP some drivers for win 10 which they can not install but when I went to upload drivers only win 8 were available for the platform that I have. Can anyone help me get the needed drivers?

Hi:
What drivers do you need for your z400?
Usually you can use the W8 drivers and they will work.
Post the names of the devices and the hardware ID's.
Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID for a device...

I can give you the W10 Realtek audio driver for now. Accept the agreement. Download and install the 64 bit driver and restart the PC.
