    The only one oblidged to help you is HP.

    You obviously have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) copy of Windows (sold to you by HP at a reduced rate), this means you need to get your support from HP.

    If they tell you to call MS you tell them that. If there is a problem they can't solve, they have to call MS and get it sorted, then let you know.

    That's why OEM software is cheaper, MS doesn't supply the support, the OEM does.
