Laptop touchpad buttons stopped working

Sun May 14 09:00:44 UTC 2017

Hello,
It really sound like hardware problem. Try to enter the Setup (BIOS) and check is it possible to disable the integrated touchpad. I looks like a button or touchpad are stuck (spilled drink with sugar is the best example). Also if the laptop is a little bit special (touch screen) try to disable it as well. Probably external mouse works, but in fact all pointing devices work simultaneously: a pressed button on one of them effectively remove the effect of other devices. Event "left mouse button pressed" doesn't care on which device it happened.

Sounds like a hardware problem, but why don't USB or Bluetooth mouses work 
either?
