Jumping cursor syndrome long-term __Need help. Too many people have this problem for too long.

There are several different corrections suggested here.  Some seem to work for some and not others.  I tried all the on an IBM laptop runing xp.  Nothing helps.  It is almost useless to try to hit it and I don't even think to try to stick a link on the typed page.  A new Sony (two week old) with Win 7 has the same problem. the roll back trick help does not work, there is nothing to restore.  This problem seems to be on a lot of different brands of laptops and was captured in both XP, Vista and Win 7.  This is why it seems to be a problem in Microsoft.  Unchecking the boxes in Panel control/mouse seemed to help some.  Not me.  Reinstall the touch pad/mouse drivers may or may not help.  It did not help me.  It seems to me that someone at Microsoft would take notice and we say if there is a fix or not.

Please stick to one of your other previous discussions on your problem:

  • Jumping cursor on computer laptop Vista runnung. Did not have this problem on the previous operating system. You have solved the problem yet?

    Some time (over two years) ago I upgraded my laptop from Microsoft Windows XP edition Center for Windows Vista EDITION Home premium.

    Soon after, I started to have problems with a jumping CURSOR.  The cursor would jump to a different location while typing.

    It is a very dnagerous and troubling problem. I searched the Internet for soutions and applied some of the suggestions without result.

    This problem occurred after installing VISTA; This problem has been not - exist with Windows XP. Therefore, the suspicion is that it is

    a Vista software problem.

    Another problem, I discovered with the VISTA installation, when you type, text Gets highlighted his own (as happens when you want to 'select' text to)

    cut and paste.) This problem has been nonexistent with Windows Xp.

    I dealt with this problem for months.  Even hired a comp tech to fix it and still have the same question.  I had my computer wiped and windows 7 and 8 then reinstalled by a professional.  This all started when I upgraded form 7 to 8.  After 7 to 8 my computer kept getting this error. . kept crashing.  He was supposed to be fixed and it still does the same thing. I was told then move to 8.1.  I have always the same coming error.  I'm not on computer.  IS THERE ANYONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO FIX THIS?  Someone who can explain to me step by step how to fix?  I've tried everything.  Error 0x0000005c [settings 000000000000800 0x000000000000000B x 0 0 x 0000000000000000 0 x 0000000000000000]

    Hello

    The upgrade to 8.1 was perhaps not the best thing to do...

    A lot of people are having problems with it also.

    If it is a desktop computer, have you checked the wall outlet and the plug on the back of the computer?

    Your point about starting the tone certainly as a power or a hard disk problem...

    The problem with you mouse pointer could be related to a feature called quick start...

    Your other problem also, perhaps... Try to turn it off and see if it helps...

    This feature works only when you make a STOP and then start.

    It is not perform a RESTART.

    Turn on or off...

    Go to the control panel... Power options, and then select choose the power what buttons on the left.

    Then select change settings that are currently unavailable near the top center of the screen...

    Lower on the window, uncheck the quick start.

    Thank you all for the very quick responses.

    The problem is solved in my opinion, by cutting the module.
    I will remember all the recommendations and maybe I can do something with it in the future.
    Because I know what the problem was, I took the site offline because the problem for you is no longer visible.
    For the disabled module, I'll have to find another option.

    Hi Flybrid,

    I checked at the time of your code,

    I am able to run your code by deleting page layout override methods in two fields of the label.

    The problem with the substitution of the method of layout in the spaceF and spaceF2 fields.

    But I can't explain why.

    I think that you can achieve the same thing by replacing getPrefferedWidth() and getPrefferedHeight() above the fields instead of page layout.

    Thank you.
