2 possible reasons for your question...

1. you used to type. You may not realize, you may be in contact with the touchpad while you type, therefore, the cursor moves.

2. your touchpad is too sensitive. Each brand computer has a different way to change the settings on the touchpad. My Acer method will not apply to your brand.
Refer to the computer user documentation.
Basically, you need to go into the settings of device which you can see how to enable or disable the touchpad.

First steps are universal... Start > Control Panel > Classic view > mouse...

    Vista, why my cursor jumps around on the screen without reason?

    You are using a laptop with a touchscreen?  Chances are good that you accidentally touch the touchpad while typing, and that moves the cursor.  Go to start / Control Panel / mouse and see if there are controls for adjusting the sensitivity of the touchpad or to disable the touchpad while typing.  Go to the web site of the manufacturer of your and download the latest device drivers, firmware, and software for touchpad you and your mouse (if you also have a mouse - you may have to go the manufacturer of the mouse for these drivers, if she did not come with the system).  New updates can offer options that did not exist before like the ones I mentioned.

    This happened to me also and I bought a separate mouse and disabled the touchpad and the problem disappeared - but he had me past for awhile until I finally figured it out by typing differently (with my hands up higher so the Palms do not touch and had no problem).  Even if this isn't the problem, update the drivers, firmware or software can solve the problem on its own.

    If none of the works above, we will need either to run a complete troubleshooting procedures (post back and I'll meet with them) or the touchpad or mouse is defective and must be replaced.  You can discuss these last with the computer manufacturer when you talk to them (if you talk to them).

    I hope this helps.  If you have any questions along the way, come back and I'll do my best to answer.

    Good luck!

    Hi Phil,

    1. what kind of mouse do you use? Wired or wireless?

    Method 2:

    Put the computer to boot and then check if the problem persists

    Follow step 1 in the link below,
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.
    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

    Important: n ' forget not to put the computer to a normal startup follow step 7 in the link.

  • Why my cursor jumps around to various places in the text I type on my PC?

    This happens when I tap on a Web site, text, forms, forums, and
    also by e-mail. It is random. No particular trend.

    Someone at a party said it was a Microsoft program and turn off, but I
    don't remember that one, and when I tried to stop programs
    on the task Mgr, it did not help.

    It is a relatively new HP PC (13 months) and up until about a month, no problem
    with Windows except for the usual questions '7 '.

    Whenever this happens (4 times in this area), I have to click to start typing the text in the appropriate again place.

    Very annoying and time consuming.

    Hi Linda,.

    Here is that a work around you can try.

    1. go to Start , then on Panel.

    2. in the Control Panel window, in the Find box, type mouse and click mouse.

    3. in the options of the pointer tab, uncheck the "hide the pointer when typing"

    You must contact your manufacturer for the latest drivers.

    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

    Hi Ony Parsons,

    1. What is the brand and model of your system?

    We met this problem and most of the time that this can happen on laptop and when you increase the sensitivity of the touchpad.

    You can try to reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad and see if it helps.

    Some options may vary depending on the touchpad software you are using.

    a. click on "Start" and click on "Control Panel."

    b. double-click "mouse". The "Mouse properties" window opens.

    c. go to the tab "device settings". Click on "settings".

    d. examine the left panel of the 'Properties' window and expand the "sensitivity". Click on "Sensitivity to touch."

    e. reduce tactile sensitivity in moving the slider to the right, to the label of "heavy touch. Experiment with different levels of sensitivity until find you one suited to your needs.

    f. click "OK" to close the "Properties" window Repeat the operation with the control panel "mouse". Your new touchpad sensitivity settings are now saved.

    You can also consult the following article:

    Hope this information is useful.

  • 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.

    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.

    1. 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

    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.

  • 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.
