How can I stop my cursor from jumping?

T

I have a new laptop and my cursor keeps jumping all over the page when I type
- in Word, Outlook, Excel. I have no idea what is causing this but it means
that I can't type anything accurately without having my sentences broken up
and jumbled with other words. I'm not sure if it's a mouse sensitivity or
keyboard sensitivity issue or what but it's annoying. Any ideas anyone please?

Open Windows XP's "Help and Support Center" and type: TEXT SERVICES ,
and hit enter.
Then click on "Turn text services off or on".
You need to turn-off text services.
