Welcome to the HP Forums,

We'll be with you until it's all sorted.

 

Note: Please ensure the complete product name/number for a quicker response from the community, as we need to know what we are dealing with to provide an accurate solution: Click here for steps on finding the information we need!

Remember: Do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc.

 

That said, if the touchscreen isn't working I recommend you connect an external keyboard to your tablet and check if that works,

Although if the touchscreen works periodically, use the below steps:

 

If Windows cannot open to the Start screen, you can still use Reset your PC to permanently remove all personal files, the software you have installed, and then return the computer to factory settings. To do this, you need to open the Choose an option screen.

  1. Start your computer and press the F11 key repeatedly.

    The Choose an option screen opens.

  2. On the Choose an option screen, click Troubleshoot.

  3. Click Reset your PC.

  4. On the Reset, your PC screen, click Next.

       CAUTION:

    Your personal files and settings are destroyed by performing this step. Make sure you have backed up all your important files on another drive before performing a reset. If you need help backing up your files, you might want to contact a professional data recovery service.

       NOTE:

    If an error displays stating Unable to reset your PC. A required drive partition is missing., resetting your PC does not work. Instead, recover your computer using the steps in Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 😎.
