Synaptics touchpad pointer

Comment:

Hi all I have a dell Inspiron 4100 laptop, with a Synaptics touchpad. Occasionally the pointer had annoying habit of to the top right corner or the bottom left corner and will keep sticking to it even if I drag it over. I have updated Norton and scanned for viruses. Any ideas? Did a search on the forum - no luck. Thanks in Advance

Some research seems to indicate a possible conflict on an IRQ like with a modem. Can you you remove your modem/nic card and see if that frees it up? Larry
