I bought my notebook with windows 8 but the system itself got updated to windows 8 pro. Now the windows is not activated and the touch screen is not working. No driver from windows 8 working not even calibrating the screen. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you for posting on HP Forums,
The Riddle_Decipher is at your service.
I understand the Touch Screen issues for windows 8 pro,
I'll be glad to help you out, however, for an accurate solution I will need more details:
What is the product number of your product? Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824
Have you attempted any steps on your own before posting on the HP Forums?
As far as I know, windows doesn't change it's version from win8 to win8 pro without the use of windows retail disc, did you check if someone else is using your PC & have made the changes for you?
If you can go back to win8 OEM, simply make use of the recovery manager (Tapping F11 during a restart) and revert back to win8 as HP doesn't support retail version of win8 pro.
In the meantime, please try the steps mentioned on this link: Click here
Please reply with the details for further assistance.
Eager to help!
Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,
It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.
