Why does my cursor jump around?

W hy does the cursor jump around on the page while I type.?

  • I will just be typing and the cursor will move itself to a different location on the page. It did it just now so it's nothing to do with Microsoft office word. I have a Dell Inspiron6000 laptop, and am running XP. I have to constantly watch the page and backspace. Help.

  • Answer:

    I used to do that too. When you're typing, try to turn off your touchpad, your wrists hit it, and move the cursor around.
