Cursor jumps around while typing
In every application on my computer, my cursor jumps around while typing. I can not type fast because I have toconstantly bring the cursor back to where I am typing (just did it again right now). Something is wrong and needs to be fixed. I am not technical and have no idea how to fix or what forum this question belongs in. Please advise.

After the Windows 10 update on my Asus laptop T100T the cursor jumped all over the place when typing.
I went to programmes in control panel and for Asus Smart Gesture I clicked repair. The OK several times.
The problem seems now fixed.
The Windows 10 update also changed some of my default programme settings

As I already said, I updated the drivers to the touch pad. See my other posts in this thread for instructions.

2015-10-18T17:56:10+00:00 I have found a simple solution to this problem. I am using an ASUS laptop with Windows 7 Professional and Microsoft Word 2007. The jumping cursor has been a terrible problem for me and I have tried most of the configurations of the e-Lan touch pad that I have come across online; except downloading the Touch Freeze application.
I finally came across a permanent solution by going to Control Panel/Mouse/Pointers and selected "None" under Scheme. I have not had my cursor jump around since I made that change.
