Hi guru's in the house.. I need your help

Whenever I want to save something in my system, be it microsoft document or a movie I want to download with opera, mozilla or chrome, I always see 'not responding,' and then 'close or wait to respond' which will take forever till I close the page.

I have tried deleting and reinstalling , but still the problem is still there.

I use windows defender as antivirus and I still have alot of space in my local disk.



Please help a sister. .. what do I do apart from formatting the laptop?

Thanks

Check to make sure your touchpad is on with an fn+f ? key.
Use google to find out which of the keys to press with fn.

Use google to research how to get to device manager and
see if there are any yellow signs. Any dirts or liquids on the touchpad ?

Can you use a usb mouse to navigate ?

Can you use the mouse with or without the charger ?

When was the last time it works ?

Please I need help.

I bought a laptop. Hp 250g3. Preinstalled with windows 8.1 single language.
There is a CAD software i want to install but it doesnt support windows 8.1 and it was the reson i bought the laptop in the first place.

I was recommended to downgrade to windows 7. But I heard a lot of issues with drivers when one downgrade as the win 8.1 drivers wnt wrk.

So am wondering hw true is this, and how can i get this problem solved. Does drivers differ with os versions and where can i download hp250 win 7 drivers without stress, if the claim is right.

Please, a friend of mine has forgotten his admin password on his windows 7 laptop. And he has no password reset disk.

# The laptop has 2 accounts: (1) the admin account (2) user account.

# He can access the user account, because it has no password. But cannot access the admin account because he has forgotten the password.

Waiting your suggestions. Thanks.


Please still waiting

I can use a USB mouse to navigate, as a matter of fact that's what I use presently.

I've cleaned the touch pad several times to be sure there's no dirt/liquid on it, yet the problem persists.

I can use a USB mouse with or without a charger. But I can't use my touchpad with and without a charger.

The problem started sometime last year, it stopped early this year and continued again Two months ago (now more severe) and it's still on.

I would advice all users to respond like this; we are more likely to help you further. Remember,

Could you tell us the laptop model number please, this can be found
at the back on the back, for example hp pro 2430p. Is this windows 7/8.1/10 or vista ?

SuperNover:

LOL thanks.
Okay to your questions.

The model number is HP proBook 4510s

And I use both windows 7 and windows 8 on the system.

Hello there,

please visit Hp website with the make and model and
select your operating type; then look for diagnostics or solutions
regarding your mouse. An update or a setting could be preventing it from working.

Niceone sameolg616, you are following good practice.

deji2009:





You could also use google to find out how to get to device manager and
look for sound video game controllers and click the + then right click to
uninstall each items underneath sound video game controllers then restart
the laptop to test.

How can I do that.

gorgeousnogo:
how do i solve the problem

sameolg616:

there are some procedures that cant be explained....at any point,it may just get out of hands..
if u stay in lagos,we can arrange a meet...else seek the nearest software engineer...but make sure formattng shdnt be an option for him except a last resort(which i doubt)
