@xxNoshadoWxx Welcome to HP Forums Community!

I see that this product was shipped with Windows 8 64bit, which means upgrading it to Windows 10 pro 64 bit, will require a retail version of OS and I'm afraid that's not supported or recommended by HP and the main reason to avoid doing the same apart from the fact that your product is designed to run at its optimal performance using the factory shipped OS & hardware, is that there could be driver compatibility issues like the one you have now.

 

The best way forward is to obtain a recovery media from HP: Click here for details, you may then use the steps from this link to perform a recovery and get the OEM back to resolve the issues: Click here
