Windows 10: Laptop Wont Function

help......had it on, then bunch of opaque dime size circles started floating at top, couldnt do a thing. reboooted couple of times, did w-defender scan check, malware bytes. Cursor wont move, things shaky. Did comp break down, or I got some type of virus? Scary for a non-tech type like me, anything I can do before I figure it's no good now and I have to buy another?

My hp laptop wont turn on

This is a frequent problem am sure as you have already seen from online searches.

Flea power is usually the culprit here, basically its residual power that remains on the computer even after thecomputer has been shutdown. You can drain the flea power with the steps the other answers have suggested.

• Disconnecting the battery and adapter
• Press the hardpress the power button for 30 seconds
• This should clear the flea power

If this doesnt work, read this article its about
a dell inspiron but the same applies for you hp. It has some detailed step by step instructions

SOLVED: Laptop Touchpad fully functional, but not in Universal apps

OK - sorted it finally :

• in step one/two above you delete the existing Synaptics drivers then have to reboot
• unfortunately when the PC restarts it installs some generic touchpad drivers which have the basic functionality
• So although step4 (run setup) appears to work, it hasn't actually done anything as the generic drivers are already there

So what you have to do is this...

• In device manager, select the mouse device and click update drivers.
• Then select Browse My Computer > Let me pick from a list > Have disk button, and select the folder with the new Synaptics drivers (I'm running 32-bit windows so selected ..\WinWDF\x86).
• The green progress bar shows the drivers are loading, then when it's all done you now have the new functionality installed - RESULT!!!
