My laptop mouse/cursor is completely spazzing... to the point where I can't even use it (I'm now on my work laptop).
I've restarted the computer. I've changed the mouse settings to slow things down, require a heavier touch or whatever, but the real problem is that it has a mind of its own. It just freaks out and starts clicking on everything and highlighting things and resizing things. I won't even be touching the freaking thing. It's completely unusable for writing (since it suddenly highlights portions I'm writing and moves them!), and also not working even for basic internet searches (since it randomly clicks links and opens pages, etc).
The laptop is only about six months old, and this only became a problem recently (and only a HUGE problem this weekend).
It's a Dell Inspiron, if that makes a difference.
What do I do?
