It is pretty lame they don't have drivers for windows 8 what you need to do is find out what components your laptop has and go find the drivers. For example if you have Intel hd 4000 graphics go to Intel and download drivers for HD 4000 graphics. Some of the drivers like the mouse and keyboard drivers will probably install automatically and if they don't the hp windows 7 drivers may work
You need to figure out what chip set you have
usb drivers
Wlan drivers
Mouse and keyboard drivers
Graphics drivers

If the operating system you are looking for is not listed on the software download site, HP does not have software or driver downloads available for your computer and operating system. HP provides software and driver updates for the operating system that originally came with your computer as it was designed and tested for the operating system purchased with the PC. Changing the operating system on your computer (upgrading or downgrading), puts the system into a configuration that might not work with the hardware design. If you you must change the operating system, get drivers from the manufacturer of the component you need. For example, if a computer has NVIDIA video hardware and was upgraded to a newer version of Windows, someone would go to NVIDIA's web site to download and install an updated driver.
