HP Pavilion 15 Touchpad Problems

[oggser]

Recently, my HP Pavilion's touchpad/trackpad has really started acting up.

Sometimes, for no reason, it starts going much slower than it otherwise would, which usually leads to it locking up with it going all over the place whenever I move my mouse and making random  clicks all over the place for at least 10 seconds afterwords.

I've tried everything. I've wiped down my touchpad (seemed to work for a little bit, didn't), I've downloaded updates to drivers and computers (didn't even make a dent), I've even completely uninstalled and reinstalled my laptop touchpad driver, all while restarting pretty regularly.

Nothing works! I'm going crazy! My touchpad just randomly decides that it's just not going to work with me sometimes, and I have no idea what to do except for get a new one, which I really don't wanna do.
