There should be a touchpad on off tap zone on the upper left of the touchpad, and a light to indicate it is on or off.

Did you use this latest driver

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=32...

 

I noticed there were 2 different Synaptic drivers on the downloads page.

 

Here is the older version

in device manager everything is good. it is installed as Synaptics PS/2. after installation there isnt new icon in Start Menu or Task Bar for some touchpad configuration as for example after installation of graphic or sound drivers.

Go to Mouse in Control panel and see it there is a Synaptics tab on the mouse software.

 

Have you rebooted since installation?
