stuck at the Win7 lock screen and cursor won't move

[theboxdr]

Help, I'm stuck at the lock screen and the mouse cursor will not move. Can't unlock the computer without moving the mouse. Keyboard commands won't work either. I've tried safe mode, still won't move. I suspect there's an issue in device manager with the usb tree but I can't get into windows to see it. Is there a way to restore/repair windows 7 home premium without booting into windows?

@theboxdr Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you are facing stuck at the Win7 lock screen and cursor won't move.

Please perform the below steps and check.

Power on and off your computer three times
On the third time, your computer will boot into the Advanced Recovery environment
Click Advanced Options
Click Troubleshoot
Click Advanced Options

Click Startup Settings
Click Restart
Press (4) to Enable Safe Mode
Wait while Windows 10 starts in safe mode.
Log in

Press Windows key + X
Click Device Manager
Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers at the bottom

Right click each entry then click uninstall

Exit then restart

Windows 10 will then redetect them.

Check if they then work.

Additional troubleshooting steps:

Restart in Normal mode and see if the mouse works.

It was an issue with the Synaptics drivers for my touchpad. I had to disable some Palm Check sensitivity, which I had read about a few days ago, but could not find the option.

OR

Press Windows key + X

Use the down arround to select Mice and other pointing devices.
