Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

 I bought an HP Model dvd557s dvd multi recorder with lightscribe. My desktop is running Windows 10 pro 64 bit but you can only get drivers for Vista and Xp. What would happen if I tried installing those drivers? They just wouldn't install maybe a message about incompatibility? Or is there a chance they would work?

You could try installing the drivers in Compatibility mode -- but my guess is that is not going to work.

 

Sorry, but Vista-era stuff generally does not work with Win10.
