Pavilion dv2700
Microsoft Windows XP

[Product information]

Full model number: HP Pavilion dv2700

P/N: FF470EA#ABV

dv2999ee

 

In my model's Specifications, it says:

[Pointing device: Touch Pad with dedicated vertical and horizontal Scroll Up/Down pad]

 

I tried some solutions, but I found nothing.

And in device manager under "Mice and other pointing devices" it only has this one:

"PS/2 Compatible mouse"

So I assumed it should be a driver problem and not related to settings.

Hi:

 

That model only has Vista drivers.

 

You can try this XP touchpad driver and hope it works...

Were you able to get it to work?  I also have an older 2008-era HP dv2700 & I installed a new SSD & Windows 10, but the touchpad scrolling function won't work & unable to get 2-finger scrolling to work either.  P.S. This laptop feels really new and snappy since I upgraded to a SSD.

Sorry for the inconvenience, as I didn't intend to check this site again because I gave up on my wrecked laptop and I used it's hard drive as an external hard drive.

 

Nevermind, you were lucky because I checked my emails and saw your reply.

 

- Were you able to get it to work?

Yeah, fully functional.

I fail to remember that which software helped me, I think it was the one that Paul_Tikkanen sent in this topic.

When I installed it, some program was added to my control panel and from there I had a whole new experience with my touchpad.

 

- I installed a new SSD & Windows 10

My laptop's graphic was damaged and It couldn't handle windows 7 or 10.

So I had to use XP.

But isn't windows 10 a bit heavy for it?

 

- the touchpad scrolling function won't work

I assume that's because of windows 10's incompatibility.
