My cursor jumps back when I type. I am not hitting the touch pad...help

You're probably having a jumping cursor where the cursor jumps from one place to another while typing an email or something. To fix this Go to control panel - hardware - mouse then look for the check box that you can tick on that says "Tap off while typing" and this should fix the problem.

Should you have any other questions just please leave a message.

Cheers~

While typing on my laptop, my cursor jumps to other places on the page, then types where the cursor has moved to . I don't use a mouse.

Hi,
I guess the 'other places of the pages' is mostly the beginning of the line? It usually happens when the key stroke is not proper while using combination keys. Or also it happens when if you dont release a key when you press the next in between your speedy typings.

There is something wrong with the list under the EDIT selection in the STAT menu

I can't guess what could be wrong. However there is a simple way to restore everything. Press [2nd][STAT][5:SetUpEditor][ENTER].
That should restore the L1 to L6 lists.

If you want to clear the list, press [2nd][0] to access the (CATALOG) of commands. Press [PGRM] to jump to first command that starts with C. Scroll down from there till you reach ClrAllLists and press [ENTER].
Try this and if that does not solve your problem, post to this thread, elaborating on that "something wrong".

I am having a problem when I type and the cursor moving

This happens when your hands get to close to the palmrest and your wrists are actually causing the cursor to jump to another spot. Go to the control panel > mouse> settings > highlight the touchpad listed and select the settings button. Look through the entries and there is a setting for palmrest sensitivity. Turn down the sensitivity so your hands and wrists don't trigger a cursor movement. The hardware and drivers are fine, this is a setting adjustment.

How can I stop my curser from jumping around whilst typing ?

Hello
Most probably because your 'Touch Pad Mouse' is touched by your palm (hand or something) while you are typing. Avoid contact with the mouse touch pad while typing.
Option 2:
If you have a centre moveable mouse on your laptop, start using it and disable the 'Touch pad mouse'
Best of luck!
