15-cc050wn
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello all, 

 

I've recently installed Windows 7, 64-bit to a model 15-cc050wn notebook. This model came with Windows 10 and was never meant to run windows 7. I've gotten most of the drivers together with help from the wonderful people on this forum; however, to do my job as a writer, I need to be able to very specifically tweak the functionality of the touch pad, i.e. trim off the left and right edges of the pad so they don't function at all, turn down sensitivity, turn up palm check, have two finger scroll, etc. 

 

Right now I can't even type a fast sentence without the cursor jumping up a few lines and inserting  new text where it doesn't belong. I've tried a ton of drivers, one that even killed my touch pad and key board, so I think it's time to defer to the experts.

 

I'd be grateful if anyone has a work around for the driver; or, if there's a driver out there from an earlier HP notebook model that might work for windows 7 64-bit and this model of touch pad:

 

Hardware Ids:

ACPI\ETD0730
*ETD0730

 

Right now I've got an old Elan 8.0.7.0 driver installed that I know works, and I can roll back to if something goes wrong.  

 

I'd like to thank everyone in advance for your help 🙂

Thank you for joining the HP Community

 

As you have downgraded the operating system I doubt if the driver is available for Windows 7, if you can help me with the exact product number I will be glad to assist you.

 

Keep me posted.

 

Have a great day!

Cheers:)

Hi Raj1788,

 

I fear you might be correct about there not being a driver for Windows 7 that will open up all the options I'd like. But if there is one that you know of, I'd love give it a try.

 

My product number is: 1KU11UA#ABA

 

Thanks in advance, 

 

JuanPablo

By performing a system recovery, the Windows operating system will reinstall all original software and drivers.

This document explains how to reset the computer to its original factory shipped state and is divided into sections based on the different ways of performing a system recovery. Click here to perform a system recovery. 
Note: Back up all personal files and read all caution statements before performing a system recovery.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

I clean installed Win 7, because Win 10, in my opinion, is pretty terrible and super intrusive operating system. I'll re-partition the drive a little later so I can have a Linux partition; but besides the fact that the hardware was only made to work with Windows 10, and it has higher functionality with regards to the usb, touch pad, and keyboard; I really don't like it.
