It's a laptop? If so, you are most probably accidentally brushing
your hand against the touchpad that you type.Ken Blake (MS-MVP)

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

Hi Tim,.
You're using a laptop by chance? If so, you can solve this problem by taking a quick glance to your touchpad options. If you use Windows 7, click the Start button, type mouse in the search field and click on enter. There should be an option to change the settings of the device for the TouchPad. On many models, Synaptics is the creator of the TouchPad and has a tab of its own in the mouse properties. If you do not see these settings, you will need to install the drivers for your manufacturers Web site.
For Dell machines, you can go to the support.dell.com website. Select your model and you will find the driver in Input Device Drivers. For Compaq/HP machines, go to support.hp.com, select your model and find the devices, keyboard, mouse and input.
I would like to turn off the tap option and raise the sensitivity PalmCheck option. These are the first options I always change when I get a new laptop; Otherwise, I have the same problem.
Hope this helps,
Barbara

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.Dell - disable or enable the touchpad by using the access key

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)

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

Cursor jumps periodically on Portege M700
Can anyone propose a resolution to a problem I have?
While I'm typing, the cursor jumps periodically around on the screen. This means that a moment I'm on a particular line, the next I'm inserting text in a line somewhere else in the document.
It is a defective machine or is this a "feature" of the M700?
Before you start typing disable TouchPad by using the FN + F9 key combination. I do the same.
Try it. I hope that the slider will not jump around again. -
Cursor jumps around erratically on dv-7-1245dx
When I use the keyboard on my dv-7-1245dx I can't type a sentence without moving the cursor towards where I was typing the cursor jumps around This happens in documents, e-mail and other activities. It was a problem when I bought my computer with Vista. Now, it's a major problem with Windows 7.
Hello
Jumping cursor problem is one of the common problem especially seen in Windows Vista and Win 7 usually when you type in word or outlook. My previous experiences that I noticed that there is no solution for this problem right. You may need to try different steps, but can not say that we're going to fix it.
First of all, you can try these two steps that have worked for me in the past. If it does not solve the problem, there are other measures that we can try.
- Go to Control Panel ---> mouse---> Options of the pointer , and then uncheck "Hide the pointer during the strike". If this does not work then try turning off the score button if you have a
2. If step above does not work then you may have to download and run this small program called Touchfreeze

Some solutions may include measures directly related to changes in the registry that can cause serious problems if not used correctly. Use the following steps at your own risk

Qosmio G20: cursor jumps typing the letter
Hi everyone, my Qosmio G20 gives me headaches! When I try to type a letter or article suddenly the cursor jumps back lines and I find myself typing in the middle of a previous sentence. Then sometimes it just deletes a paragraph I just typed.
Any suggestions as to why? And more importantly on how to behave?
I would be happy to advice.Thank you.
RonnieYes, it's because of the touchpad. To disable and enter in peace, just press Fn + F9. This will temporarily disable the touchpad. When you are finished typing, press Fn + F9 again, it will re-enable the touchpad.

On my Satellite M70 cursor jumps while typing
I bought a laptop satellite M-70. When typing, the cursor almost impossible jumps, too do wriring to help to solve the problem
I have the same unit and I use an external mouse all the time. Because of this I disabled the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination. As you type, it is possible to communicate with touchpad unintentionally.
Turn it off and see if the problem persists.

Thanks a mill! Katie x
Hi mate
I read on this issue of cursor on the different laptop models (from different manufacturers).
But in most cases, the users didn't note that the touchpad was accidentally while typing of touchpad.
You said you checked this hmm but in any case, try to disable the touchpad while typing just for test purposesIn addition, some have said that the BIOS update can also be useful
So if the most recent BIOS is available, updated it! -

JulieHello
Can I ask you what model of laptop you have exactly?
I had the same problem on my laptop, but it wasn't really a problem but a mistake while typing.
I touched the affected surface accidentally while typing.
Then I disabled the touchpad through FN + F9 and it solved my problem
But like I said above; It was more my mistake -
This weekend I started having problems tab that had never happened before. When I open a new tab, I don't have time to type one or two letters before the cursor jumps away. I did a scan of symantec without success. Someone at - it suggestions on how to solve this problem of jumping? Thank you
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
Is this weekend
Me once again. It is the complement of CoolPreviews, not Firefox.
Since the return of FF 3.6.4 or 3.6.3 does not resolve the issue, I searched further and found the culprit.
After you disable CoolPreviews 3.1.0623, the question came to me.

Cursor jumping while typing on Satellite A110
Hi experts,
I have trouble with my notebook, Satellite A110, PSABOE. I took it to the dealer twice and they have not fixed. Looks like they have no idea. It is still under warranty for 2 more months. I have two problems.
Problem 1, when you type text, the cursor will move to home or somewhere few lines or paragraphs that precede. I have to be constantly looking at the other screen wise I would be strike suddenly between previous convictions. I am very careful not to touch keys other than the alphabet I want. What could be the reason? The key material Council mentions as keyboard standard 101/102-key or Microsoft natural PS/2 keyboard keyboard. I'm not sure have the right driver. A new driver solve the problem?
Problem 2: When I type a letter in outlook before you finish or press the button send, mail is send! It's worse when I'm answering e-mails from the half finished mail would go really. How can I stop this from happening?
Your help would be appreciated
Hello
The described problem looks like the problem that appeared on my laptop!
The same has happened on my laptop as I type. The cursor jumped from one line to the other and sometimes deleted my sentences in the word.I looked for solutions and finally I found! Believe the or not, but it wasn't question!
I accidentally touched the touchpad as I type and I have not noticed didn t!
Try disabling the touchpad with FN + F9If it doesn t help you can also try updating the BIOS.
In many cases, the update of the BIOS might resolve some strange behaviors for laptop.> The key material Council mentions as keyboard standard 101/102-key or Microsoft natural PS/2 keyboard keyboard. I'm not sure have the right driver. A new driver solve the problem?
The laptop doesn t need the keyboard driver updates! The operating system uses a clean Microsoft driver and these drivers works and are 100% compatible.
