@Andrewad 

Sorry, NO.  You should NOT have used MS media to reinstall Windows because MS Office came preloaded on the HP OEM version of Windows.

 

You might now NOT be able to get that back -- but we have no access to it here, so you will have to check with HP Customer Support about this.

 

To contact HP Support see the following link to create yourself a case number, then call and it may help speed up the call process:
Step 1. Goto this page https://support.hp.com/us-en/contact-hp
Step 2. Enter Product number or select to auto detect
Step 3. Scroll down to "Still need help? Complete the form to select your contact options"
Step 4. Scroll down and click on: HP contact options - click on Get phone number
Case number and phone number appear.
