My laptop Dell Inspiron 1525... When typing, the cursor jumps around & inserts as I type

When you use the keyboard, the cursor will jump to another place in what I typed & insert here where it shouldn't.

Hello

Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there
probably are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with)
Entries of TouchPad) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area near clock on
at the bottom right.

==========================================

If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)

Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touch pad-
The driver tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
(drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in
It). RESET

This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
of work.

The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we must
Clear the specific device if present.

Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

==========================================

This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

I hope this helps.

    It's a laptop? If so, you are most probably accidentally brushing
    your hand against the touchpad that you type.

  • I have problems with the cursor jumping around when I type, especially on facebook.

    When I type, the cursor jumps around. Most of the time he'll be back in the part I typed before. And for some reason, he does it almost everytime I type in the word you. I have run virus scans and she always does. Any suggestions?

    By chance, your computer is a laptop or netbook?
    I found that when typing, my wrist is sometimes contact with the touchpad causing the cursor to jump on.  Something specific on how you type 'you' might make your wrist touch the touchpad.  If this is your case, there is a program called 'touchfreeze' which disables the touchpad while you type.

  • 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.

    Hello

    1 does happen on all applications?
    2. you are using a desktop computer or a laptop?

    Method 1.
    If you use a laptop try disable the touchpad and check.

    Method 2.
    Step A.
    Check to see if the problem exists in Safe Mode, if the computer works as expected in mode without failure, then we can solve the problem in the clean boot state.

    See the article below for the procedure safe mode in Windows XP

    A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Step B.
    You need to perform a clean boot to find the program that is causing and then disable or remove.

  • I can barely type a sentence in email or office without the cursor jumps around. It gets worse every day! ... What happens and how can I fix it or stop?

    I can't type a paper letter or in school without the cursor jumps around. It just happened again! ... He jumps around and I have to watch very closely... he already did 3 x now, just try to type these 3 phrases! What is wrong w / my laptop? and how can I solve this problem!

    Just a guess, you could have a setting on a place where some keys move the mouse. That would be used in the case that you do not have a mouse.

    Other that I can't help you much. If you are using a desktop computer, try to unplug the mouse and see what happens. If you're on a laptop, it could be that the trackpad is having problems.

  • How to install all the drivers that I need for my dell inspiron 1525 when I can't get on the internet?

    I have a dell inspiron 1525 with windows xp sp 2 on it and I had to wipe and reinstall xp on it b/c I got the BSOD. Now, I can not configure a network connection, or get all the drivers that I need and I can't go on the internet. Is it possible to use another computer to get the drivers I need for this? Do you need a specific driver to even set up a network connection?

    AngelaGraves,

    The drivers you need are on your disk drivers that came with your computer.

    Here's the order of installation of the drivers. How to download and install drivers in the correct order

    If you do not have the drivers disk, you can download the drivers from Dell drivers & downloads, then copy on a USB key or drive and install from there.

  • I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) and now my wireless does not work.

    Hi, I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (dell insparon) 1525 and now my wireless does not work. ive tried re installing driver, but it says operating system not supported. I used the disc that came with the computer of the re install and I even tried to install service pack 1. .

    original title: Wireless problems after install.

    I just tried both, the dell is one that says OS not supported"and the intel, it went very well, but my 'network controller' still have a yellow top thing in Device Manager. and I always wireless. any other ideas? Thank you for the help

    Question...  You have whatever it is listed in the "Network adapters" section of "Device Manager" now?

    While ensuring that the exclamation point is not for your wired network device (plausible) or bluetooth (plausible) and you just need to configure your wireless network to connect to * your * wireless network now.

    You may have to contact Dell to see why none of their drivers receive your wireless device works on the original operating system, what they included.  This could be a hardware problem PURE.

    original title: keyboard probkem

    wendyjjll,
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

    Most likely, the problem is due to the sensitivity of your touchpad.  Whenever you type, your thumb probably affects the touchpad with the cursor to another location where you type.  You can set the sensitivity of your touchpad, or turn off the tapping by going into settings start, Control Panel, mouse and keyboard.  If it is not under that, the manufacturer of the laptop most likely installed custom software to control the touchpad.  Let us know what kind of cell phone, brand and model, and we will be able to help you.

    Thank you

  • Satellite A100-165; while typing the cursor jumps to the other place

    Hello

    When I write with the keyboard sometimes the cursor jumps to another location.
    Just this moment, he jumped at the entrance of 'topic' of wire.
    It's pretty random where he jumps but very annoying, I'm running a Toshiba satellite a100 165;

    Anyone got any ideas of what this could be?

    Hello

    I had the same problem
    I t has not noticed that I touched the surface of touchpad accidentally while typing.
    This is the reason why the cursor jumped.

    You can disable the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination

    In addition the BIOS update would also be desirable.

    Good bye
