I am still using the alternate synaptics driver installed from "dpinst.exe" found in the "unzipped" 圆4 folder downloaded directly from the synaptics website.

After months of experimenting and reading these forums, I now have a 100% functioning mouse! It has now been over 2 weeks since I've replaced the track pad and still no problems! I use my laptop 3-4 hours a daily. Upon disassembly, I discovered that one of the mounting screws for the track pad was loose (this may have contributed to the problem). Ninety nine percent certain that I had defective track pad, I purchased P/N "761210-001" from ebay seller "parts_direct101" for $59.95. Sooo, I found a source for brand new replacement Envy "control zone" track pads. I debated on sending it back to HP for warranty repair, but after having to wait a month to get this unit in the first place in addition to reading all these horror stories of people getting back a semi destroyed unit and still struggling with the same symptoms, I was willing to tackle this myself. Firmware and BIOS reflashing was helping before, but was no longer changing anything. However, this problem gradually went from bad to worse and eventually the track pad failed all together. If I applied counter pressure by pressing or wiggling on the base of the palmrest, the pressure indication would cease and use of the mouse would return to normal. I noticed that from time to time, the "animated tray icon" would indicate that pressure was being applied even when I wasn't touching the laptop. I then determined that this was indeed a hardware problem. With an alternate synaptics driver, I was able to stabilize the mouse enough to effectively utilize the "pressure graph" tool. With that being said, I had experienced the exact symptoms described in this thread since day one. Both packaging and laptop arrived mint(cosmetically speaking). In January 2015 I received via mail, a brand new Envy 15t-q100 purchased from the official HP website. I have seen similar issues for the HP Envy 17 and other notebooks, but no actual fixes have been proposed. Reduce cursor speed and other mouse options suggested online. Here is what I have tried to do to fix it and has not worked: Randomly click stuff as I attempt to move it. Not allow scrolling/normal touchpad functions when issues are occuring.įunctions as if I am holding down the click button while I try to move it - most frustrating part when I am doing important work. Move incrementally on its own without me anywhere near the laptop (generally spazzes to the left). Jumps around on screen (a few millimeters to inches). Then, I started having more occurences of cursor/touchpad issues to the point where it happens every hour of use (not an external mouse issue): For the first few weeks of use, I did not have any issues.
