Hi @tau13,

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community! I understand you are looking for the drivers for your HP notebook. Don't worry I'll be really glad to help you with this.

After reviewing your post, I did go through the Software and drivers page and found that there are drivers available only for Windows 7, 8 & 8.1. Hence there are no drivers available for Windows 10.

For workaround, you can go ahead and install the drivers of Windows 8.1 on your Windows 10 machine and this could be compatible. 

For example if you are looking to install the drivers for your graphics card, I would suggest you first uninstall the graphics card drivers from Device manager and make sure you don't put a check mark next to delete the driver software for this device.

Once it's done Uninstalling the device. I would suggest you launch our website: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers Please select the Operating system as Windows and version as 8.1 (64 bit) and install the right drivers which should be compatible for Windows 10.

In case if you come across any issues. try to install the drivers using compatibility mode.

Download the  graphics card drivers from your computer manufacture website for Windows 10, if not available.

Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

a. Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website.

b. Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘properties’.

c. Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation.

d. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

Also, download and install HP support assistant on your PC. It should automatically download and install the latest updates and drivers for your PC.
