Hi:

 

There is no guarantee the touch screen will work  on W7, but here are the links to the W7 drivers you need...

 

Chipset (installs the smbus and usb 3 controllers).   Select the W10/W7 x64 chipset driver from the webpage (2nd file listed) and restart the PC.

Graphics:  Scroll down the page, select the W7 x64 driver and restart the PC.

Audio:  Accept the agreement.  Download and install the 64 bit driver on the webpage, and restart the PC.

Hi:

 

You have to change some BIOS settings....Enable Legacy Mode/Disable Secure Boot

 

See this link for the settings to change.

 

https://www.support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03736054/

 

Plug the flash drive into the notebook's USB2 port.  It won't work from a USB3 port.

 

Then turn on the PC, tap the ESC key at the beginning of the HP welcome screen to get the menu of options.

 

Select the F9 boot options menu and from that select the Legacy USB flash drive, and press the Enter key.

 

The PC should now boot from the W7 installer.
