Vista - Cursor freaks out.

AsukaSaruwatati · 01-05-2009

Alright, I have looked at a few of these threads and they all spoke about how their Cursors freak out by flying around the page and pushing buttons.

My is slightly related to that. When I am typing, at times where my Cursor is, it'll click there and begin typing. So I am basically typing in a middle of a sentence.

I am not sure if it is the touch pad, but it also does when I use my Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet mouse.
I have a Toshiba Qosmio X305 laptop with Vista Home Premium 64-Bit.

Could it be that I am lightly pushing the touchpad, causing the cursor to click it's current spot, or maybe something else?

Can you disable the touchpad on the laptop? I find that occasionally I do
indeed accidentally "click" on mine while typing and that causes odd
problems, so I switch it off when not in use.
