As far as I know, there is no way to Upgrade Win10 Home or Pro to Enterprise. You have to do a clean install and that overwrites everything in the process.
Also, the only LEGAL way I know to get Enterprise is through a Home Use Program associated with a company that has a license to distribute that. The Enterprise version requires its own license, which you can not buy on your own -- it has to be provided through the Home Use Program.
Thus, you have to contact the company that furnished this to you for support.

I have a legal copy as i work for University of Florida, and we dont allow windows home on our network, We normally buy Dell products but this PC was purchased without consulting us. So thats why i need to up grade and it continues to come up with We couldnt find any drives no matter what i try.. I even did the usb drive using Microsofts media creation tool

My guess is that the HP is configured to use UEFI/GPT but the Win10 media you are using is BIOS/MBR -- that could prevent the PC from seeing the media as it could be looking for UEFI boot media. That's the only thing that comes to mind.
