HP pavilion 15 laptop touchscreen not working

[Howie311]

My daughter told me  the touchscreen stopped working on the HP Pavilion 15. I am out of warranty. I have tried all the HP support  page..... http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03488148  and selected the "Screen does not respond to touch or  responds intermittently" I tried the hard reset, the full shutdown,the enable the touch screen in device manager, the reinstall driver in device manager,  basically I tried all except the HP system recovery....

Does anyone have a suggestion? it has not been dropped or nothing spilled on it. The screen is in perfect condition no cracks..... 

any suggestions would be appreciated  thanks!

Hello @Howie311,

You didn't mention the full model number so I cannot lookup drivers to see whats available.

I can see if there is one if you post that info.

Did this happen recently after one of the big MS updates?

Several people have had this issue after the roll out.

Looks like you have done about all you could do so far.

Most of the touchscreen laptops from the past few years utilize Microsoft's generic built in touch screen drivers now.

If doing a Factory Reset fixes the issue, then it would lead us to believe it was a Microsoft update issue.

 I believe the full number is J9H81UA#ABA 

Model is HP Pavilion 15 notebook PC

System ID 227E

If that's not correct please instruct me where I can locate the info...Thanks

OK Thanks.

Here are the drivers listed for your HP 15-p157cl.

HP Software and Driver Downloads

There are no touch screen drivers listed, so it is relying on the built in drivers from Windows.

If your system is fully updated and the screen is not responding, you may have to do the factory reset after all.
