My mouse pointer on screen has been jumpy. I'm using a wireless mouse and thought it needed a battery, so I tried the laptop pad mouse, same thing. I hope it's software and not a problem with my laptop. Any clues?
I had the same problem. It behaved as if it had lint or something in the underside of the mouse (it's a plain optical mouse, not a laser.) After I deleted the mouse and reloaded the software and got a good mouse pad, the problem disappeared. So I'm not sure if the mouse pad did the trick or re-loading the mouse stuff.
Update: I'm on Amazon.com and jumping a lot but on PC World it's not.
Depending on the browser check to see if the page is still loading. In FF it shows in the lower left corner. Quite often I find my cursor is jumpy if a page heavy with graphics is slow to finish loading.

The best bet would be reinstalling the driver. Because the problem still occured when the OP used the laptop touch pad.
