Re: Cursor is jumping to abnormal positions.

Hi Alexander,

The first thing that comes to mind with an erratic cursor, is a bad mouse
(wired). When mine went, the cursor was all over the screen and even to the
extent of clicking open windows, all faster than the eye could even keep
track of.

In the event of a bad wireless mouse, or low batteries within, I'm afraid I
have no experience.
