• 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.

• Screen is scrolling down repeatedly and the cursor moves on its own.

  The cursor is rolling along of type I.m

  You do not give much information about what is really happening, but the first two points to check are the mouse and the keyboard, before looking for other hardware or software problems.

  If you have another mouse and keyboard available, you can try reverse the two and restart the computer to see if the problem persists.  If not a little more information would be needed before I could give advice on the best way to solve the problem.

  You're talking about the screen, scroll down and the cursor moving without the mouse - these are two separate actions.

  He is not anywhere on the screen do scroll down unless you have a running program - this scrolling happens with all programs that could scroll, or simply with a certain program?

  The cursor moves randomly or according to a specific orientation?  The cursor move around all the time or only in certain programs?

  These problems occur all the time, or only when you do something, like click with the mouse or use the scroll wheel?

• When you type in Firefox, the cursor moves to the left while everything is written backwards.

  Recently, whenever I try to type so that Firefox 9.01, the cursor moves to the left while everything is written backwards. I can normally type into a word document to have done with it and cut and pasted in this message. I use Windows XP. I closed Firefox and restarted my computer twice with no success to solve this problem.

• Satellite Pro A300 - the cursor moves continuously when connected an external mouse

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A300. When I connect a mouse directly by USB the cursor moves constantly. I also have a mouse attached via a docking station, Toshiba and that works perfectly.

  It doesn't matter what USB port I use or if the laptop is connected to the docking station or not, or if it works on AC or on battery power.

  I thought it was the mouse that was the problem, so I went and bought a new one but the problem persists.

  Actually, while I wrote this post, he has stopped doing that and then started! Very frustrating.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

• The cursor moves in the opposite direction

  Original title: "slider issue"

  about 40% of the time after the start of my laptop, the cursor moves in the opposite direction. If I restart, it usually solves the problem, but sometimes I have to restart 2-3 times... I only use the touchpad and doesn't it have never get tired with a mouse... ideas?

  Cheers, fileeep!

  Tell me everything said on adapter #3 and adapter #6 - What are they, what error messages they say exactly?  These devices work, or if you have problems with them (one of them is the mouse)?  Error 31 means he cannot load device drivers which means that there is something wrong with the drivers or the device is not compatible with this version of Vista or another component on your system (very hard to tell from a distance).  You should always download and install the new drivers, firmware and for two devices having problems (not just drivers - it may be more necessary) just to be sure, that you are not corrupt.  We need to solve the problems with these devices, because I suspect that it is at the origin of this problem.

  If this does not work, we will need to make a complete diagnosis of the entire system.

  Good luck!

  P.S. Please do the test with the mouse - that will tell us a lot.

  the cursor jumps back to this line and the line above.  Very frustrating!    Problem is in Windows 7 to purchase; correction was made when I bought in January 2010.

  Have reconstitute last month and the problem reappeared.  Can't seem to fix. ;

  This unit has a cushion of tack Synaptics, and there is a setting in the drivers called "Palm Check" or something similar. Check it tells, basically, the touch pad to try to detect when it is your Palm (in typiing) compared to a finger.

• Lenovo s g80 touchpad does not (far left, to be more precise on the thick part of 5 cm), the cursor moves sometimes

  A part of the my s g80 lenovo touchpad does not (far left, to be more precise on the thick part of 5 cm), the cursor moves sometimes, bought this tour only 2 weeks before. I use especially the usb mouse, so never experienced this problem before, I do not know if it is still there since I bought. I contacted lenovo saying this problem, they asked to reinstall the driver for the touchpad from the link given, the problem persists and they claimed his driver with w7 incompatibility and reinstall the operating system? Please say a solution for this problem, I can't change the os now :(

  Lenovo/support forums is the place to ask, its their software/driver.

  Unless of course you make the mistake of using windows update for drivers, if so try to make back the driver, or reinstall on the Lenovo support site

• The mouse cursor moves randomly while typing.

  Hi guys, I was typing in mandarin especially when I use windows live messenger and have no problems with him. Lately about 2 days back, this problem started.  The problem that I am facing is that at random times when I place my mouse to a position where I want to type something, in the races of cursor. By example, if I want to type something in one of my windows live contacts messenger chat box, the cursor blinking indicating the type runs. Then a little box will appear on any where right above the task bar and I start typing in this little box. Next to the box, there will be an arrow which I can click and he said: "complete the chain. I suspect that this must be my language setting I messed up with and have no idea how do to reverse the trend back to normal. Someone has an idea how to fix it?

  Thank you. Any help will be much appreciated.

  The link below shows the small box that appears just above the taskbar

  Hello

  If it is a laptop, please set the sensitivity of the mouse.  This could be the cause of this problem.  In addition, I would consider doing a restore of the system at a time and one hour before this problem occurring.

  -Create an another user account and check if you still experience this issue.

  -Test in Safe Mode

  -SFC / Scannow

  I hope that this information is beneficial.

  Thank you

• Precision touchpad 7510 periodically freezes, the cursor moves its own

  Just got a new Precision Mobile Workstation 7510 a week ago. Out of the box and before installing updates or new software, the touchpad randomly every minute or so, stop answering the entry and the cursor would be very slowly thumbs itself (usually slightly crawling upward and to the right). This would happen for anywhere from a few seconds to 10 or if, before the touchpad would start working again. No change in the past week.

  The pointer stick works as usual at the time the touchpad does not.

  I tried all of the suggestions I found recommended or would think:

  • Reinstalling Windows from the original image (did this two times)
  • Reinstall the driver (I already had the last being, but I also well reinstalled and then removed and reinstalled version freshly downloaded from the latest version provided on Dell.com)
  • Disable the pointer stick
  • Deactivation of gestures
  • Unplug all devices, including the power adapter
  • Restart in Mode safe (persists, although maybe the normal touchpad driver is still loaded in Mode safe)

  I was about to call Dell (I support Pro) thinking that it is a problem material, but interesting, there is no sign of trouble in the compatible installation screen mouse Dell GUI BIOS. I guess if it's a hardware problem, it would still appear there.

  FWIW, the icon of Dell touchpad in the toolbar State system sometimes, but not always, poster touchpad entry at the center of the touchpad when this happens. The movement of the cursor is very slight - at a rate of a few millimeters to each instance, for a total of about an inch of arrow for more than 10 minutes (I'm looking at do it now while I have this post from my old machine).

  Suggestions for anything else to try before I call support and schedule a call for a touchpad/palmrest of replacement?

  Don't want to jinx it, but... it's been about 24 hours that the tech came out and replaced my touchpad and things worked great since then.

  It seems that it was a material that delivers a replacement is resolved.

  Thanks to Terry for configure sending tech support without making me go through all the hoops to talk to tech support. I have long been happy with Dell ProSupport, but Terry help me set up just to do very easily. Thank you!
