HP NX6125 mouse running away

Hi I have this old laptop given to me by my cousin, the laptop is fine apart from the touchpad. The move cursor works sometimes, sometimes it just runs away in opposite direction and sometime it will not work at all.

I have tried all the FN key, reinstalled the touchpad drivers and checked the settings in the control panel but no luck.

Any help will be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

How do I disbale the Lenova G550 touchpad Thank ou

Hi there,

To turn off the touchpad when an external mouse or other pointing device is present, you can go to the Control Panel and double click the Mouse properties icon.


a) Click the Device Select tab and check "Disable Touch Pad when USB Pointing Device is present." The cursor will no longer move via the touchpad.


Alternatively, you can permanently disable the touchpad of your laptop by clicking the "Disable Device" in the Touch Pad setting

The mouse pointer on my HP nc6320 jumps around intermittently and is very difficult to control. This problem only occurs when the laptop is fully charged and is running off the battery. If the battery is...

Hi Alan,

From your description I understand that the cursor jumps intermittently. This happens when the sensitivity of the touchpad is more or high. Try lowering the touchpad sensitivity.

Here are the steps:

1. Click Start.
2. Click Control Panel.
3. Double-click Mouse.
4. Click Device Settings tab in the Mouse Properties window.
5. Click Settings Button to launch Touchpad settings.
6. Go to Configuring Sensitivity on the left side menu.
7. Move the slider towards left to decrease the sensitivity.
8. Also, click on PalmCheck on the left side and move the slider towards maximum.
9. Click Apply. Click ok
You can try reinstalling the touchpad driver from the below links:

When i type the curser puts the text all over the place- what is the apparent problem

If you are "cursing" at the "cursor", you are the "curser".

Keep your thumbs and palms away from the touchpad.
Sometimes, you don't have to make contact with the touchpad
for it to move the mouse.

Or, your computer has a computer-virus, and some hacker has "remote-control" of your computer, and is moving your mouse-pointer.

Hi,

This happens to me also. Check whether the touchpad is enabled (laptops do have an option of enabling / disabling the touchpad). Secondly, you can try reinstalling the touchpad driver. Uninstall and then re-install the driver. Re-boot the system. Try using the touchpad.

Hope this helps., if so, rate me.. thanks - billa
