HP (and a few other vendors) install FreeDOS on their hardware as a low-cost alternative to Windows, but we don't have any relationship with those vendors. I'm making a guess, but I think your question is because HP distributes a really old version of FreeDOS (I think FreeDOS 1.1) and you would like to download FreeDOS 1.3 (the latest version)? As Liam said, download the FreeDOS 1.3 LiveCD from our website at http://www.freedos.org/download/ and use that to install FreeDOS on your PC. You will need to "write" or "burn" the LiveCD image to a CDROM or other install media to boot it on your computer.
