Hello;
Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!
Sorry, but HP does not provide support for installing Linux on a PC preinstalled with Windows. For this, you are pretty much on your own and will have to resort to using Linux forums for support.
As to the drivers -- no one really knows without trying them -- so the BEST approach is to create Install media for the Ubuntu version you want to run, boot the PC from that media, select the "Try" option -- and see how well the PC works running Ubuntu.
Anything that does not work the is going to range from simple to impossible to fix -- the latter being the case if there are simply no Linux drivers for the hardware that does not work.
