  • Stream laptop HP 11: after the update of windows 8.1 Windows 10, the touch pad does not work

    My Hp Notebook PC 11 Stream works fine on Windows 8, 1 until I updated to windows 10. Now the touchpad is dead. I have to use a USB mouse.  In Device Manager, all the drivers work fine. Any clue?

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome.

    Information below can help you

    Make sure your keyboard is on

    Check in the settings 'Mouse & touchpad' to ensure that the touchpad is enabled.

    Open the Settings menu (Start > settings) and go to devices > Mouse & touchpad. Scroll to the bottom of the screen, and then click additional mouse options.

    The mouse properties window opens. Click on the tab more far to the right (it may be called MOMENTUM ordevice settings). Under devices make sure your keyboard is not disabled. If it is disabled, click on the touch pad to select, and then click Activate.

    Another thing to try is to see if your laptop has a function button that enables / disables the touchpad. It should look like a tiny touchpad with a diagonal line through it (on my computer laptop is F6, on other laptops we Fn + F5, Fn + F6 , or something else entirely). Try to switch this key if you have before you panic on the misfortunes of possible touchpad.

    Update your drivers

    Windows 10 has been out for a few months now, and most of the manufacturers of touchpad have updated their drivers accordingly. But you may need to manually update your driver.

    There are two ways to do this. First, click on the Start button and select Control Panel. In the Control Panel window, open the Device Manager.

    By clicking on "update driver software... "will your computer Internet search for an updated driver.

  • How to change laptop Gateway running Vista touch pad sensitivity?

    I have a laptop Gateway running Vista.  My problem is that when I try to use the touch pad, the screen jumps all over the place.  As if I was scrolling up or down very quickly.  Any ideas? Thank you

    * original title - help help my screen jumps *.

    Hi M.MARRIN,

    ·         If it works much earlier? If so, then remember to make changes to the computer, after which the issue started?

    If you run your finger vertically down the outer edge of the touchpad and then the scroll bar will be activated. If you do not want to use the scroll bar or if you want to reduce the sensitivity of the scroll bar, then you can try to modify the settings of the mouse. Take a look at the following link for more information or take a look at the manual that came with the computer and check how to change touchpad settings:

  • turn off the touch pad hp pavillion

    Hello!

    I have a HP pavilion g6-2240sq with windows 7.

    In the instructions that came with the laptop it says touch quickly 2 times a circle in the top left of the touch pad to turn it off. I tried, but it does not work.

    I want to disable the Touchpad, cause it gets in the way of typing.

    Can someone help me please?

    Thank you!

    Concerning

    It seems that you can run Windows 7 on a system designed for Windows 8 and you run without drivers TouchPad.

    This does not explain it.  No worries.  This is not my personal specialty;  I have a couple of options for you.  If none of them does not work because the pilots have not features you need or the drivers don't work well on your machine, we can ask for additional help.

    Options:

    ===========================================================================

    • You might try your driver for Windows 8 running in compatibility mode.  Lot of software works in compatibility mode - if the driver for the TouchPad will be happy if this is something you can try or no--a personal choice.

    Download and do not install the device:

    Synaptics TouchPad Driver 16.5.3.3 sp61882

    How to install and run the drivers / software Compatilbility Mode:

    Try this Windows 7 driver for a similar computer of the g6:

    • Download and press twice on the installation package
    • Restart / reboot the computer after installation

    For something like this, it is best if you have an external mouse attached - it's common sense and not because of something flakey on occur.  It's like the race without a disc of recovery and personal backups: you can get away with it for years and then ONE day, Poof - here you are with a blank screen and no way to recover your data.

  • Tecra A9 - sometimes I can not type - click using the touch pad

    There are times that I can not type - click using the touch pad or other keys (all of a sudden without any reason)

    I can move the cursor in this case but not tap - click here to be able to click once again, I have to restart (this happens on both windows and linux)

    On windows, I press alt + ctrl + del and when the Task Manager window I can tap it and after I do I can tap - Select something else and so on.
    Click on the Task Manager click on anything else until I reboot and the problem goes away just to appear suddenly unexpectadly at the same time.

    I have the newest bios and driver accupoint

    Any tips?

    This happens only with touchpad, or when you use an external USB mouse?
    For me it looks more like the Windows operating system freezes for a short period. Is this good?

    touchpad doesn't work on my laptop.   I can't find that everything about the touch pad in Control Panel.  can you help me please?

    Hello

    It's material is not a Windows problems.

    / Settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you start then look at the screen - make sure that is it
    is a toggle the TouchPad that it is enabled.

    Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
    Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad
    entries) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    ==========================================

    If necessary and the TouchPad makes its appearance in Device Manager: (make sure that you have restarted at least
    only once if the above did not work)

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
    Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
    on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    ==========================================

    This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

  • HP 15 ab019na: clicking on the touch pad does not work

    My laptop newly purchased has just been upgraded to Windows 10. My problem is with the touch-pad. Clicking on most of the things with it (left or right) turn simply on the element, but it does not open the item. For example, the cross that appears in the top right, to a screen, to cancel this screen does not when you click on it. I have to touch it with my finger so he could work (the laptop's touch). A lot of hypertext links do not open when you click on it, but their contact works. The Start button at the bottom left does not open when you click on it, but it's when they are affected.

    Clicking is sometimes more convenient than touch, so I would if the issue is resolved.

  • How to change the default setting for the touch-pad?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 running Windows 7 Home Premium.

    I use it 99% of the time on your desktop, using a mouse instead of the key.

    Sometimes I forget to turn off the key by using the small dot in the upper left corner, which causes the movement of the cursor unexpectedly.

    Question: Is there a way to reset the value by default for the touch-pad to be inactive, and use the small point to activate the key only if I use the computer in a remote location?

    Thanks for any help on this.

    Larry

    Hi Larry,

    See if you have the following option.

    Open windows control panel, open the mouse, click the device settings tab and then click on the button "settings".  Click on the + next to the Touchpad disable Zone, and then click top left Action.  Click on the radio button for TouchPad Switch Off, click on apply and then click Ok.  Click apply and then click OK in the remaining window.

    This should enable the TouchPad on/off function to remember, so if you turn it off, it will be turned off after a reboot.

    Kind regards

  • Pro L10: After using a wireless mouse, the touch pad has stopped working

    Pro L10. After using a wireless mouse, the built in touch pad has stopped working properly. At the start of the keypad icon touch shows and the touchpad works intermittently, after a few minuets, the icon disappears and the touch pad stops working. In the control panel / mouse & or device drive I can how the program works, then disappears.

    I deleted the software and reinstalled nothing doesn't. In some cases, I get a message that a pointer is on.

    Can you help me?

    Hello

    It seems that the wireless mouse or mouse wireless drivers/software has a bad influence on the touchpad.
    I put t have a good solution for this problem. Well, you can consult the page of the Toshiba driver for latest driver updates. If the updates doesn't solve this problem I suggest to use either the mouse wireless and disable the touchpad with FN + F9 key combination or use a regular USB mouse.
    I guess that you are having regular problems with a USB mouse.

    Hello

    One reason might be a missing touchpad driver.
    But if the touchpad driver has been installed, you should check the settings of the touchpad.

    In Control Panel-> mouse, you will find the touchpad properties. It should be the last tab.
    There you can check activate them and deactivate and configure many options.

  • I have a Toshiba satellite L455D laptop and the touch pad does not work

    If I plug my usb wireless mouse that works, but when I unplug it the touch pad does not work

    Have you checked to see if your laptop model has a physical button around the mouse pad that allows & turns off?  If it does not, many cell phones often have a software switch that can toggle the on & off power mouse pad.  It is usually triggered by a combination of function keys (key Fn + one of the F1 to F12 keys).

    Take a close look at the row of the top of your keyboard and see if you can find a key that has a small symbol that looks like a mouse pad.  If you find one, try pressing it in combination with your Fn key to see if your mouse pad features returns.

    Hi dove2k,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    You will need to enable the touchpad on the laptop itself.

    Find the area of the touch pad, you will find a button to enable or disable the touchpad.

    If the step above doesn't, try this step.

    Go to control panel > mouse > device settings tab
    Click (or to disable)

    Notes:
    On some models, there is a keyboard shortcut to enable or disable the touchpad. For example, ACER, just do Fn + F7.
    You can click on Reset device if none of these solutions work.

    If you still can't touch pad to work, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer for more information.

  • How to disable the TOUCH PAD

    I have a laptop of HP G42-475DX 62 bits. How can I deactivate my Touch Pad and just use the mouse? My problem is that while I'm typing touch pad cursor must jump into a paragraph & when I look up all of my text that I wrote is so a total mess, phrases running together etc. I would like to disable the Touch Pad.

    Facilities to turn the TouchPad depends on whether the driver supports.

    Go to the Control Panel, select mouse. If there is a device settings tab, you should be able to disable the TouchPad.
