My Touch Pad on my HP 255 G7 hasn't been working for a few weeks now. When looking for it this is what happens: The device does not show up initially in the Device Manager. But it will show up if I click on "Show Hidden Devices". In which case it lists "Synaptics SMBus TouchPad" with a yellow warning triangle over it. Right clicking its properties says "This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)" If I click on "Update Driver" it says that the driver is up to date.
Model: HP 255 G7 Notebook PC
Product ID: 159V1EA#ABZ
I tested the mouse/clickpad using BIOS/UEFI hardware diagnostics, these are the results:
Pointer Test: FAILED
FAILURE ID: RSP863-A8BBQ0-XD7U3G-G21H03
Drag And Drop Test: FAILED
FAILURE ID: RSP863-A8BBQ0-XD7U3G-G21H03
Obviously i couldnt move the cursor at all, so i failed both tests.
