Welcome to HP Forums, 

This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips, 

Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂 

 

As I understand the DVD/OPTICAL drive isn't working since the upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7,

Did you know that HP doesn't support nor recommend switching to a retail copy of windows?

 

That said, I looked up your product specifications and found the OS supplied by HP was: Windows 10 and downgrading to Windows 7 isn't possible unless you've made use of a retail version of the Windows and I'm afraid that is not supported by HP. 

  

Unfortunately, I can only help you once you’re back on OEM, 

If you need assistance obtaining a recovery media, please Click here for the details.
