HP TouchSmart 520-1050
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

Upgraded to windows 8.1 and lost touchscreen. I have followed all of the steps on every forum. The HP Driver available for windows 8.1 for this model computer displays an error message saying my system doesnt have the necesary system requirements to install. I have tried manually selecting drivers from windows update, i have reinstalled windows 7 and tried to install all of the windows 7 versions of the drivers and that didn't work either. I tried reinstalling windows 10 and using the drivers for that but they do not work either. I am pretty surprised reading most of the HP forum responses by HP agents who repeatedly suggest hard resets and disabling the device and updating which works for none of the cases on the forums. Then eventually they stop responding. Is there a valid driver for this in exhistence and if so where can I get it.

yeah that didn't work. that would be one of the cookie cutter responses i was talking about. It looks like HP never made a driver compatible with windows 10 for this display and after checking numerous forums I have concluded that HP has given up on making this model work.
