Hp Omen
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently bought this HP Omen used. The person who had it before installed an Alienware hard drive and now my laptop thinks it is a Dell Alienware17 R5. Is there a way to download everything or reset this hard drive and have it read as a HP Omen and have the features that came with the original Hard drive? I am not able to control my keyboard lights due to the command center installed is Alienware not Omen?

Hi:

 

If your notebook was made in 2016 or later, it is probably supported by the HP cloud recovery tool which you can use to create a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your notebook.

 

Here is an info link for how to use that utility...
