Have downloaded the WebPack suggested but it is still saying "pending" in the driverinstallation updates and has been for quite some time. Could I have the wrong pack?

Welcome to the HP Forums, this is a great location to get assistance! I read your post and see that you are unable to find HP Envy 5000 printer driver for Windows Vista. I would like to help you resolve this issue. 

 

However, I will need a few details to provide an accurate solution,

Which version of Windows Vista is intalled on your comouter? 32bit or 64bit?

 

If it is Windows Vista 32: Click here to download the driver.

 

Windows Vista 64 Bit driver is not available.

However, you can use Windows built-in driver.

 

You can watch this YouTube Video to know how to install the printer with the built-in driver.
