Does the cursor work with other applications? The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time things worked and the time they didn't? Without more information, I'm not sure where to start helping you. Post back with more details. In the meantime, if the cursor isn't acting correctly at all, reinstall the touchpad drivers. Get them from the laptop mftr.'s website for your specific model laptop. Malke Because I still can dialup (I never cancelled that) and the cursor stops when
using dialup. Of course, I'd rather firmly establish my wireless connection so I can cancel dialup.

Here's an example of what I need to know: 1. Your operating system and if XP, what version and Service Pack level. 2. What wireless hardware you have in the computer. 3. A clear description of the cursor's behavior - ex. "The cursor acts completely normally until I connect to my wireless Internet connection (DSL with a Linksys wireless router). Then it flies all over the place. As soon as I disconnect, the cursor returns to normal. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with being on the Internet since my AOL dialup account works perfectly. 4. The cursor behaved itself until [insert some time frame and any ideas of what changed]. 5. What you've already tried. Malke
