Welcome to HP forums.

 

Uninstall the battery drivers from the device manager.

  1. Press Windows Key + X to open Win + X menu. Now choose Device Manager from the list.

  3. Next, you should right-click Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery and select Uninstall from the context menu.

Restart the computer and it should automatically install the drivers

You can also update all other drivers using HP Support Assistant:- Click here

 

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that had no effect. Also, HPSA has no driver update for this product since Win8.1. FWIW, UEFI doesn't detect the battery either.

Since you installed Windows 10, and there are no software or drivers available for this PC, you might have to rely on generic windows drivers(Windows update).

If you want you can revert back to the original operating system that was shipped with the PC.

I request you to talk to HP support to order a set of recovery media for his PC

They might have multiple options to help you with this.

1) Click on this link - www.hp.com/contacthp/

2) Click on "Continue as guest".

3) Enter the serial of your device.

4) Select the country from the drop-down.

5) Click on "Show Options".

Fill the web-form. A case number and phone number will now populate for you.

 

I hope that helps.
