persianpower Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 hey i have a wierd problem. I don't even know how this could happen.When i use my laptop keyboard to type (just like I am doing so now), every so often, the keyboard (or cursor) JUMPS to a different part of the screen or text box. * This means I don't have a consistent flow of words, instead I'm forced to take my mouse and re click on the part of the screen that got interrupted. * This is a new laptop (and everything) other than this works perfect.The problem is sporadic and consistent. There is no pattern to it. Sometimes the blinking cursor disappears. Sometimes the blinking cursor jumps 10, 20, 30 words backwards or forwards in the text (this causes for really shetty productivity).Please help if you can. Thanks.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Is it a specific application where this happens (e.g. Word), or does it happen in other apps as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Do you have a touch mouse pad? You may be inadvertently hitting it with your palm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
