Cursor moving erratically on Sony viao running Windows 7 laptop

Hello

Really frustrating that when you type cursor and part words move randomly. See we talked a lot about this common problem, including the button next to the cover with a piece of cardboard! also downloaded 'touchpad' disaster and had to remove it.

Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated?

Thank you

Kris

Hello Kris,

The easiest way is to disable the touchpad entirely. If your laptop is not a touchpad applet in Control Panel, go to the mouse properties in Control Panel. Opens and there will be a tab for the touchpad. There should also be a checkbox to 'Disable touchpad when an external mouse is connected', in this way, you keep the touchpad when you have an external mouse and lose it when you.

Alternatively, or in some cases particularly stubborn, you can also go to the Device Manager (in Control Panel) and disable the touchpad there. It will be located under the mouse or HID (Human Interface Device); Make sure you turn it off and do not try to uninstall it, because it will resettle the next time that you start your computer.

If you do not want to disable or use an external mouse, you can try to set the sensitivity of the touchpad corners where your thumbs are probably hit (assuming that you have this feature on your laptop), but it of a little problematic and does not work as well as get rid of the touchpad altogether.

I hope this helps, let me know how make you out.

Kind regards

  • Cannot access Outlook e-mail or my Sony Viao running Windows 8.1

    Hello

    For some reason any password I used to access my Outlook account hosted on the web and to 8.1 Windows on my laptop just stopped working (Outlook is declare my password is invalid while entering the same password on my laptop give the message ' your PC is offline connection. Please sign in with the last password used on this PC "that is) very unhelpful, as I am.

    Because I put audit of phase two (apparently), even if I can pass the first step (before a code sent in a text to my registration number) I no longer use the e-mail address to which the second code is sent which means I can't reset my password. I can't find a way around this requirement and would like to have a solution.

    I'm the only user two Outlook account and laptop so think of interference of third unlikely.

    Use the reset password page.  It will be SMS you a code to prove your identity, then you can choose a new desired password.

    After choosing a new password, you will NOT be able to use it to unlock your computer.  As indicated, your computer has no internet connection, so you should use "the last password" (your one more old) to unlock the computer.  If you do not remember what was the old password, you can reset it in SafeMode in this way.

    Hello, I use a Sony Vaio with Windows 7 laptop. It worked fine until a few weeks ago when I installed a Windows Update.

  • How do I reinstall my windows XP on my Sony Viao computer original.

    I have a Sony Viao desktop computer.  It crashed a couple of years, so I had a friend rebuild.  It works under Windows XP.  However, since it has rebuilt it or what they call, I get the warning message that I have a license invalid window.  So I have not been able to have Windows installed on my computer updates now at least 2 years.  I do not have the certificate original hologram of authenticity from Sony, but it says: Microsoft Works 7.0, Microsoft Money 2004, Agie of Empires 2.0 and Microsoft Encarta online.  Is this really my appropriate Windows certificate?  I can't get the updates of windows. I am at a loss to know what to do.  Help, please.  If I'm missing any information that might help you to help me, please let me know.  How to put on my Windows XP Home?   My recovery thing is missing, too. Thank you very much.  Penny.

    Try typing F8, all as the leaves Sony logo and before Windows starts to load and watch and see if you see any kind of system recovery options. Most OEM PC (Dell, HP, IBM, Sony, etc.) come with a hidden restore partition. If you can find look for an option to restore the computer to factory default specifications. Good luck!!

    Maybe you can identify the program causing the problem with the name of the filter and update...

    An example of this is iTunes... It uses a "GEAR" driver that can cause problems...
