Hi:

 

You need this version of the driver for W10...

Thank you very much.

 

sp64144.exe worked very good for this computer on Windows 10. No more missing device driver.

 

Regards

You're very welcome.

Hi

 

I had the same problem (unknown device). 

What is this device (ven_hpq&dev_0004)?

HP Recommended

It is the HP 3D DriveGuard, it receives notifications from the integrated accelerometer and protects the hard drive (HDD) by automatically "parking the heads" to reduce the risk of damage if the notebook is accidentally dropped or is abruptly impacted by another object.   

It's probably not needed if you have added a solid drive to your system.  I have upgraded to a solid state drive but installed the driver anyway because I just didn't like to see unknown device in Device Manager. 

I am running latest Windows 10 1903 and the driver installed fine.
