Undisciplined cursor...
- 28 October 2011 15:03133728Since I had my IT upgrade I am plagued by undisciplined cursor....It won't do what I tell it to do....
I move it and it dives off elsewhere on my screen. Once or twice I have clicked without realising it and the wrong thing happens!!!
It is maddening.
I have gone into the Control Panel and made sure all the options are off, I have slowed it down and cannot find anything else to change. Yet it still happens.
This stupid Windows 7 machine seems to have a mind of its own.
Anyone any ideas how to cure this...... - 28 October 2011 15:19133730Just add IT to the undisciplined list who disagree with you.

Been nice knowing you :) - 28 October 2011 18:49133793quite a diverse spread of experiences, now and then my cursor jumps back to the beginning of a paragraph or sentence.
i normally spot it after typing for about 30 seconds -irritating but not as serious to the extent that barry speaks of. - 28 October 2011 18:54133795I am still working with windows 2000,and all is ok.
- 28 October 2011 20:22133816No, optical Alan. It just jumped then when I was trying to click in the dialogue box, nearly clicked to exit the browser instead...
