I have followed all advice and cannot stop the cursor from erratic

nothing works. I can leave it sit untouched and watch the cursor
jump randomly. All in all, while I can use my notebook, this has
been my worst Windows experience and I've been using a PC since I
met Gates in ABQ in the early days with his Altair strapped to his
bicycle pedaling down Central Avenue. Even my old Commodore Pet was
more user friendly. It seems to get worse with every Windows
Update!!!

Since this is probably a new posting with all of the advice you followed
missing - I have no idea what that is other than what you have given.

I am unsure why you believe that your mouse pointer jumping around would be
Windows' fault.

- Have you tried another OS on the machine and it works fine?
- Did you try booting with a BartPE CD to see if it was something with your
configuration/something you had installed?
- Did you try imaging the machine as is - installing BASE Windows XP and all
the latest hardwware drivers to see if it jumps on the clean install?
