    hello, the link you sent didn't seem to work. I installed it and ran the application file and it said reflash cannot find firmware updates for the devices on this system. So the cursor still lags and freezes.

    Is your touchpad synaptics or elantech? What happens when you reset the battery?

    Hello. I found the battery reset hole and it didn't work. The cursor is still the same, lagging and freezing. I think the drivers are Synaptic. Maybe the touchpad itself is faulty

    Can you check here if the touchpad is synaptics or elantech?

    Hi @steve747

    If you haven't already tried this; Restore your system to an earlier point, type “Create a Restore Point” in Search and select “System Restore” at the top of that window, chose a date when the curser was working OK.
