This discussion indicates the same thing on a Lenovo laptop...If W10 is installed in UEFI mode, those devices should not appear.

I cane across a reference to a post in russian which when translated suggested that the hard drive should be formatted to GPT and not MBR. I reinstalled Win 10 Home and used Diskpart to covert the hard drive to GPT. This worked and all drivers are now installed successfully! 🙂 A weird one for me alright. Thanks again for your help with this. 🙂

That is great news, and so my last comments regarding the reason for those devices were showing up were correct.

 

I've never come across that problem before.

 

I even believe that when I first got my HP Stream and first reinstalled W10, I did it in legacy mode, but I don't remember for sure.

 

I know that there were no devices needing drivers.
