I am having the same issue but there is nothing in the Device Manager that says Touch Screen. Under Human Interface Devices I have:
"Bluetooth Remote Control"
"HID-compliant consumer control device" I have 3 of these
"HID-compliant device" I have 11 of these
"ITE Infrared Transceiver"
"Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver"
"Microsoft Input Configuration Device"
"USB Input Device" I have 7 of these
Should I disable all 14 of the HID-compliant drivers???
HELP!!!

Greetings!
Welcome to the HP Community. This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries. I have reviewed your post and I understand, you are trying to disable the touchscreen.
Don't worry, I'm here to help!
We need to select the "HID-compliant device" from the list.
Let's try these steps -
1) Press Win + R keys at the same time, type in “devmgmt.msc“, and hit OK.
2) On Device Manager window, find and expand Human Interface Devices category (by double-clicking on the item or clicking on the arrow next to it). Under this category, find HID-compliant touch screen.
3) Right click on HID-compliant touch screen. On the context menu showing up, select Disable device. There will be a window popping up asking you to confirm your action, and you should click Yes.
Let me know how that goes.

Thanks for getting back to us.
Please disable the "HID-Compliant Device". You might have to do this for all the entries.
Let me know.

Hi,
I had previously disabled all of the "HID-compliant devices" and the touchscreen had stopped working and my problem was solved. But just recently it started doing it again. How do I disable the touchscreen again???? I've attached a picture so you can see what I'm talking about.Device Manager
