I've just installed a new hard drive, and have XP Pro on it. I used to have regular XP Home, but laptop wouldnt boot from the recovery disks I made, thats another story! Its a brand new hard drive, and then XP Pro installed, and the guy went online and downloaded whatever drivers he needed.
Anyway since the fresh installation, I notice when I type in forums or in emails (OE), the cursor randomly jumps to a different location. If your not paying attention to the screen you end up messing up your message.
Ive googled this and seen many other people who had this problem too, but no explanation. Often I noticed it was after a fresh install/reinstall also.
Why would it suddenly happen after a fresh instalation? Do I need to uninstall XP Pro and somehow try to get recovery disks for my old OS to work?
one other thing, it doesnt seem to happen when I type a page in Open Office (I no longer have Word!), only in forums, and especially in Outlook Express.
Thanks
