Asus Laptop: My Asus windows 10 touchpad not working?

Fri, 25 Apr 2025 05:50:00 -0700

Anyways, I updated my laptop from windows 8 to windows 10. I would log onto the laptop and my touchpad would work for like a minute. Then all of a sudden, it won't work. I tried fn+f9 and mostly everything else but it just won't work. It won't let me move my cursor ANYWHERE and I can't click anything.

HP Pavilion dv2000: PLEASE HELP! Beeping and black screen when laptop turned on

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 04:38:58 -0700

OK, I've had this laptop (HP pavilion dv2000) for a while now, and I have no idea what happened. Recently, when I turn it on, all the lights turn on—but after around 5 seconds, it beeps loudly four times. Also, the screen is completely black—nothing pops up. The black screen goes on forever. If anybody has had this problem or knows how to fix it, I would be extremely grateful for your help with this problem. I have no idea what to do. Thanks.

I have a Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5136. I forgot my BIOS password and need to reset it. I already tried removing the CMOS battery, but it still won't let me reset my password.

Please let me know what I should try next. Is there something I should try to look for on the motherboard? If you could show me with pictures, that would be great.

Please help me!

Thanks
