When typing text cursor suddenly jumps to a point in the text already entered. Use Ctrl Z to recover. How to stop this?

When you type text, cursor jumps suddenly to a point in the text already entered.  Use Ctrl Z to recover.  How to stop this?

I use Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron.

I recently did a "clean boot" who has cured a problem of high CPU usage, but left me this cursor jumping problem.  I have to look at the screen as I type to be aware of these breaks that often occur at random.

Hello Malcolm,

Yours is a laptop? If so, you're probably brushing the touchpad with your Palm or fingers. The easiest way around this problem is with an external mouse with touchpad disabled. To disable the touchpad go to control panel, Manager of devices and look under the mouse or HID for her. Then, right-click on it and select Disable (not uninstall - it will reinstall itself only if you do).

You can also connect an external mouse and select the option for Notification of Touchpad to disable the touchpad when an external mouse is present. This setting can be found in the mouse properties dialog.

Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

Kind regards
