Hi, I'm sorry, but I can't do that for you because I installed Linux on the entire hard drive. I don't have a backup copy of Windows 8.1 (because it was awful and I didn't want to keep it), and I don't have installation disks for any other versions of Windows that are compatible with the BIOS software update. If I had known this before, I would have updated before wiping the drive. What I can tell you is that the scroll function worked in Windows 8.1 -- so I know it had the capacity to work. I'm sorry I can't help you more with that.
If I'm mistaken and there is some way to update it without Windows, please let me know. I'd be happy to try!

Expected Behavior: For the touchpad and/or ELAN touchscreen to have scroll capability. Actual Touchpad Behavior: When two or three fingers are put on the touchpad and a scrolling motion is made (in the center, or at either side), it causes the mouse to move as if it were being moved normally sometimes, other times the mouse stays still and doesn't move, but no scrolling is accomplished and the cursor doesn't change to a scrolling cursor. Actual Touchscreen Behavior: The touch screen shows the same behavior, except there is no case when the mouse stays still, it will always move as if being moved normally. In addition, the touchscreen's precision is markedly rough compared to my experience using this same touchscreen on Windows 8.1 (which has since been wiped from this machine, with pleasure). Touchpad Capabilities: Normal mouse movement, right-click using touchpad button, left-click using touchpad button, tap-to-click using touchpad, dragging the mouse while something is selected (either with the buttons or tap-to-click). Touchscreen Capabilities: Normal mouse movement, single-tap to select, dragging things after selecting them. "xinput list" gives me: ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ELAN Touchscreen id=9 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Generic Mouse id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP Truevision HD id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP WMI hotkeys id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP Wireless hotkeys id=14 [slave keyboard (3)] I searched the forums and tried all permutations of making sure synaptics is installed, tweaking settings for the mouse, and disabling 'psmouse', but nothing works. If any outputs or tests need to be done on my end to give you more information, please just let me know. I'm happy to help so this bug can be fixed!
