My cursor is missing on my HP Envy 360

[Mdykes1]

I was on my computer and it shut off. When I powered it back up my cursor was gone. I can not figure out how to get it back. I followed instructions on previous post but I still can not get it back. Thank you for your help.

While you respond to that, let's try these steps: 

Firstly, perform Hard Reset: Follow steps from the link: https://hp.care/2GnkMa8. (if the computer doesn't start up/power on you can skip the next step)

Next step, BIOS default: 

1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
2. Press the Power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the F10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
3. On the BIOS Setup screen, press F9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
4. Press F10 to Save and Exit.
5. Use the arrow keys to select Yes, then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?
6. Follow the prompts to restart your computer. Once it's done uninstall the Touchpad device,
   Note: If computer does not boot then computer needs to be serviced.
