HP ENVY x360 13.3 inch 2-in-1 Laptop PC 13-bf0000 (552D6AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

My touch screen stopped working several months ago and I've explored every way I know to fix it.

 

My Device Manager shows no HID-Compliant Touch Screen, and the Intel(R) Precise Touch and Stylus (Intel(R) PTS) - Base Driver - Port #1 is flagged with a yellow caution symbol. When I look at its Properties, it says: 

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE

 

I've searched for drivers for both HID-Compliant Touch Screen and the Intel(R) Precise Touch and Stylus (Intel(R) PTS) - Base Driver - Port #1. Trying to update the driver for the Intel Precise Touch and Stylus, I get the message that the best drivers for this device are already installed.

 

I've explored many other paths to a solution, but I'm going in circles. Can anyone help?

@LSN2, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 

We see you are facing this issue with the Intel(R) Precise Touch and Stylus (Intel PTS) - Base Driver - Port #1 after a Windows update or sudden power event. The error you're seeing:

This device cannot start. (Code 10) - STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE
 

indicates a low-level hardware communication problem, not just a driver issue. Below are step-by-step instructions to cleanly reinstall the driver and attempt to restore the touchscreen functionality:

 

Fully Power Reset the Laptop

This is crucial to clear any hardware latch or power-related bug.

  • Shut down the laptop.
  • Unplug the power adapter.
  • Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds.
  • If your model has a pinhole reset (usually on the bottom), press it using a paperclip.
  • Plug in the charger and power it back on.

Delete the Faulty Driver

  • Open Device Manager.
  • Expand the section: System Devices or Human Interface Devices (where Intel PTS might be).
  • Right-click on Intel(R) Precise Touch and Stylus - Base Driver - Port #1, then choose Uninstall device.
  • Check the box that says “Delete the driver software for this device,” if available.
  • Click Uninstall.
  • Restart your PC.

Reinstall the Intel PTS Driver

There are two ways to try this:

Option A: Use HP Drivers (Recommended)

  • Go to your laptop’s support page:
    HP ENVY x360 13-bf0000 Driver Page
  • Under “Driver – Keyboard, Mouse and Input Devices” or similar section, download: 
    Intel Precise Touch and Stylus Driver (look for the latest version).
  • Install it and restart your laptop.

Option B: Use Intel’s Website

Enable Hidden Devices (Optional)

Sometimes the touchscreen device is hidden:

  • In Device Manager, click View > Show hidden devices.
  • Expand Human Interface Devices.
  • Look for HID-compliant touch screen or any grayed-out device.
  • If found, right-click > Enable.

Run HP Hardware Diagnostics

  • Press F2 during startup to enter HP Diagnostics (or use the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics tool from USB).
  • Run Component Tests > Touch Screen.
  • If the test fails, it’s likely a hardware-level issue with the touch controller or digitizer.

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
