Cursor disappears when you type in Wordpad
When you type in wordpad, the cursor disappears. What is the cure?

Put the computer to boot and see if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State
Note: follow step 4 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

Hi WritingBoy,
Please let us know what browser you use when the problem occurs.
If you use Internet Explorer, have you tried to boot without any addons? See the following article:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/tips-for-solving-problems-with-Internet-Explorer
In addition, you can try to start your computer in Mode safe mode with networking to see if the problem persists. Be aware, though, that your antivirus software will not work at this time here:

I just got an ASUS G75VW, which comes with Synaptics Touchpad V7.4. Sometimes when you use the touchpad, the cursor does not move, I completely stop or raise my finger to get again the movement of the cursor. It occurs most notably when I play games that require movements of the mouse while using W, A, S, D to move. What can I do to possibly resolve this problem? Edit: Under the mouse-> device settings properties there no palm checking option to adjust.
Thank youRyanHi Ryan,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
Please download and install the driver synaptics from the link below and see if it helps.

Please come back if you face any issues.

the cursor moves when you type on another line without any command to do so. Line never even
When type any message in outlook or word or excel the cursor will move to another line anywhere in the message, never the same thing apparently not and of course you add letters to words, a line or it will even go to the signature block. In this case no order for the cursor to move
This usually happens on laptops by a sleeve or an arm moving above the small box that replaces a conventional mouse. Most of these devices can have their reduced sensitivity, or you can search the ' net for one of the many utilities that turn them all in being key off the coast.

you have a parameter the value "hide the pointer when typing"
to restore it, click Start, click Control Panel, click the mouse, click the pointer options, uncheck the "Hide pointer while typing" and click OK.

After inserting the cursor to start typing, the cursor moves frequently on his own. This translates into the need to reposition the cursor and enter again before continuing to type. I can't believe such a lack of basis occurs in the new product, but I can't work out how to remedy.
I also noticed that other measures be taken before I even clicked or pressed enter, taking me where I want to be far away. I own a computer using XP Professional and have never experienced this problem. Only since I use my friends laptop installed with Windows 7 I just through that.
I'm not sure I want to upgrade to Windows 7 if it is so cumbersome to work with.
Everyone has noticed this and how is it fixed?
Thanks much, Jeanette
Hello Jessen P
Have you looked at drivers as you suggest. As a result, it became obvious that my friend had not installed the mouse trackball with the software provided with the mouse. It has been installed. Cursor action now seems stable. Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.
Kind regards

Cursor jumps to another part of the page or the screen when you type
Hello
When you type on the keyboard of my laptop cursor will go to a random part of the page or the screen and keep tapping on what I already typed.
I had this problem with a Dell Inspiron, and they provided a patch with has been for the Bios or the touchpad.
Is this a common fault with the Toshiba. I've seen some messages referring to disable the touchpad. However I don't think that this is a solution to the problem and Toshiba should provide a fix.
Does not at any time have my finger on the touchpad while I was seized.
Hope that answers.
Huw.
Hello
As Christopher said use FN + F9 key combination to disable the touchpad. If the problem persists you should contact the Service partner. I'm sure they have more experience with it.
I use two models of laptops different and same happen to me. Not often, but sometimes.

When you type, the cursor jumps around. How can I correct this situation?
When you type, the cursor jumps around. How can I correct this situation?
It is a very common problem when users become familiar with a new laptop. Either your palm/wrist/cuff/bracelet is touching the touchpad as you type or the touch pad sensitivity is set too high and reacts to strong strikes.- Someone to watch you while you type to see if you accidentally touch touchpad of the notebook.
- Go to the control panel mouse configuration and reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad.
- Make sure you use the latest version of the driver from the manufacturer of the laptop for the touchpad and update if a new becomes available.
- Disable the touchpad entirely in favor of a wireless laptop mouse.
As noted previously, this is a very common problem and users are usually completely unaware they do even when it is pointed out to them. -
Problems with the cursor when you type
I don't know if it's something in Vista, but I have terrible problems in Word and when typing emails. I can touch type and normal type without looking at the screen. However, I find when I look at the screen, the cursor inexplicably himself stuck about4-6 rear lines and hit the last piece in the middle of the existing text. In fact it just happened again - when I type ing he climbed to the title: why!
I feel responsible because I don't get it in the older microsoft software that I use at work and it has never done in internet cafes - didn't have it a few months, but it drives me crazy: why it does this?
Patjom, make sure that you do not have to hide when you type the value of the mouse pointer. Here are the steps:
Open mouse by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking hardware, and then clicking on the mouse.
Click the Pointer Options tab, and then do one of the following:
Uncheck the Hide pointer while typing Rami

Why the cursor jump to other places when you type?
When you type, the cursor jumps to other lines or words, sometimes jumps 2 or 3 lines. In addition, when you use arrow down, he jumps at the end of the page, instead of 2 or 3 lines of scrolling.
Operating system is Vista, SP2, Dell Vostro A860. Problem occurs especially during the seizure of the e-mail program. I don't remember not all changes made on the PC, however, suddenly it was happening more often, so could increase after having chosen the system restore to return to a different restore point. After the announcement of this issue, I've seen in many cases of this problem in the Microsoft Forums and after those suggestions concerning the sensitivity of the touchpad, I changed the sessions for Tablet and I think my problem is resolved.

The cursor moves randomly when you type the new e-mail message
When I type an e-mail message in Windows Live Mail, the cursor will suddenly be at the beginning of my message, or maybe in the middle of a Word. I don't know if I'm a touch that I'm not aware of, or if I have a fault with my keyboard.
Hello lobelia 3206,.
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.
Since you're on a laptop, I suppose that you have a right of trackpad under the keyboard. It may be that you hit the trackpad with your wrist or Palm when you type.
Try to change the sensitivity of the mouse and see if that helps or if you have a setting to disable the trackpad when you type. I have
Click Start, control panel and select slider and change your settings in there...I don't know where the settings would be for the Compaq Presario but you can always check with the manufacturer to get the correct settings for your laptop.
I hope this helps.

Please give some answers and advice on how to solve this problem, thank you.
Hello
You use a desktop or laptop computer?
Is the mouse a mouse wired or wireless?
What is the brand and model of the computer and the mouse?
If you are using a laptop, I suggest to change the sensitivity of the mouse pad.
If this is a wireless mouse it might be interference from another close to the mouse. Make sure that speech recognition is not enabled.
