I have a similar HP as yourself and that silly proplem with the touch mouse pad thing is just solvable by using a mouse that can be attached via USB. The battery/rechargable battery only has thus much of a lifespan and if u are a frequent user, i.e. it runs on the powersocket continously, then the lifespan is shortened rapidly......so my suggestion would be to get a new "power adapter" and see if that wont fix it ....hope it works out !
