i have an HP Envy

[morganstar2013]

I can't get my mouse and my keyboard to work at the same time. I don't have a palm check anything on my mouse settings. I have a Synaptic  click pad. v.19.3.31.31. The drivers are all up to date but that doesn't help. I need to be able to move my mouse while the keyboard in use.  I have turned the smart sense on the mouse all the way down to 0 but that only allows for 1 sec of mouse movement while keyboard is in use. Then the mouse locks up and stops responding while keys are being pressed.

I haven't tried your solution yet. I'm just checking. If I uninstall my drivers for my keyboard and my touchpad and restart my computer I will have no way to use my computer. Please explain how that is going to help and not cause more problems. Is there some step where i install other drivers that I am just missing?  Or you forgot to mention? Just checking before I totally screw myself. How do I use my keyboard and my mouse with no drivers? Please explain in detail.

Re-installing the driver will help to resolve the driver issue. HPSA and Windows Updates will install the latest software/ driver on your computer. 

Let me know how that goes.
