Thanks for the response tffilvemb2 I don't think it is the touchpad though. I don't have this problem using other laptops only this one. I may try disabling the touchpad just to make sure . Thanks again for the resposne, if anyone else has a suggestion i would appreciate it. ]]>

Go to Control Panel (I have Vista -  go to Control panel, Classic View)

 

Control Panel

 Mouse Icon or Mouse properites.

Click on  Pointer Options and uncheck or clear the box that says "Enhance pointer precision."

Deselecting "Enhance Pointer precision" did not solve the problem.

Does the "t-jumping" happen in all progrrams you run on the computer or just one?  What about if you login as a different user?  Have you tried booting off of a Linux Live CD/USB and seeing if the problem occurs there as well?
