Hi there.

Recently updated to the BIOS 4.02 and Windows Driver Bundle v3.01 drivers. But also, just opened up my FW16 to swap an SSD. Put everything back together and the touchpad isn’t working. I’m on Windows 11. Device Manager shows the following two device issues.

What steps can I take to diagnose? When booting it registers all the input modules as connected.

Follow-up:

I just booted to Bluefin Linux and the touchpad is not working over there either.

i know this sounds crazy, try bending the touchpad towards the pins a little bit this fixed it for me when i first got my fwl16 also try to find scratch marks near the pins your touchpad is sitting on

Which pins? Is it possible to show?

Follow-up, this got fixed when I re-ran the latest driver bundle :man_shrugging: All is well that ends well lol.
