I need appropriate pencil for my computer

[fazamas]

Hi, i have  HP Pavilion x360 - 13-a100nt (ENERGY STAR) and i tried the original pencil on that computer and it didnt work.  Do you guys have any ideas which pencil could match with the computer?

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

I think there is not an active pen for this computer model.

There are two Service guides for this series, one for AMD products and one for Intel products:

HP Pavilion x360 Convertible PC Maintenance and Service Guide	2.52 MB
HP Pavilion x360 Convertible PC Maintenance and Service Guide

The service manual for the AMD products lists one pen as compatible to that general series:

HP synaptics active pen   773175-001

Checking that pen at the  HP Parts Store  lists the pen as not available from HP.

Perhaps significantly, your computer model is not listed when clicking on the supported product list (in the results).

What else?

If you wish to do so,

If your computer has a touchscreen,

When an active stylus is not an option on your machine,

Consider a Passive Stylus / Pen

Capacitive / Passive pen is not the same thing as an active stylus, of course.

Passive pen works like your finger on the touchscreen.
