@GURURAJ11, Hello and welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for posting your question. I'm here to help you get things back on track.
I understand you're facing issues with your Victus by HP 16-e0352AX where the touchpad is not working and is also heating up. Let's work through this step-by-step to resolve the issue.
Perform a Hard Reset
This helps clear any temporary hardware glitches.
- Shut down the laptop.
- Disconnect the power adapter.
- Press and hold the power button for 15 seconds.
- Reconnect the power and turn on the laptop.
Check BIOS Touchpad Settings
Sometimes the touchpad may be disabled in BIOS.
- Restart your laptop and press F10 repeatedly to enter BIOS.
- Navigate to Advanced > Built-in Device Options.
- Ensure Internal Pointing Device is Enabled.
- Press F10 to save and exit.
Update or Reinstall Touchpad Drivers
If the touchpad is missing from Device Manager, it could be a driver issue.
- Press Windows + X > Device Manager.
- Look under Human Interface Devices or Other Devices for any unknown or HID-compliant devices.
- Right-click and choose Update driver or Uninstall device, then restart your laptop.
You can also download the latest drivers from the HP Software and Drivers page.
Check Windows Touchpad Settings
- Go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Touchpad.
- Ensure the touchpad is enabled.
- If the touchpad settings are missing, it confirms a driver issue.
Run HP Hardware Diagnostics
- Press Esc during startup, then F2 to open HP PC Hardware Diagnostics.
- Run the Touchpad Test and Thermal Test to check for hardware faults.
I hope the information shared has been useful and resolves your concern.
Wishing you a smooth and hassle-free experience ahead!
