Was the wrong bios installed for a 4540s?
I want to install Windows 10 on a 4540s for Ukrainian refugees and notice that the notebook is masquerading as a 4740s
This means that the model and serial numbers are no longer correct
and I had trouble installing the correct drivers.
Hwinfo shows the motherboard as 17f6
HP Notebook System BIOS F.68 Rev.A 9.0 MB May 14, 2019

With Cloud Recovery I only get Win7
Notebook works but touchpad and mouse does not work
Drivers installed, no errors Device ready
Touchpad cannot be switched on LED does not light up
