Alright, so this started happening this morning. Basically, my mouse pointer will go rouge and dart from the top to the bottom of my screen. I am at college right now, so I'm using the touchpad only. The touchpad on this laptop has always been a little bit jumpy, so this could just be a result of that. The mouse pointer has spazzed out twice now. Laptop model is an HP G60 running W7 64 bit.
What I've done: Cleaned off the touchpad surface. I figured that there could be something on it that I couldn't see causing it to mess up.
What I'm doing: Running Malware Byte's Anti-Malware
What I plan to do: Run a regular virus scan.
Update/Reinstall touchpad drivers
What I'm most concerned about: If this is a malware issue. I like to keep my computer pretty clean.
I have no knowledge of whether or not this is only occuring with the touchpad and not with a mouse. My knowledge on the situation is limited as it has only happened twice so far. One thing I did notice, however, was that when I turned the touchpad off using the button above it, the mouse pointer would stop.
