How to fix Touch-pad Issues

NOTE: Before performing any significant repairs, back up your computer's hard drive.

First, try a system reboot if your laptop is unresponsive.

Press and hold the Power button for 60 seconds to force SHUT DOWN the unit. Then to start it press and hold the Power button on your laptop until the AVITA logo appears.

If a system reboot does not work, you can try these options.

Note: To perform these methods, you will need to connect an external mouse as a pointing device to substitute for your mouse pad, or you can try to navigate with the keyboard.
