Disable it and try the USB mouse. If that works ask how much to replace the pad.
PS. I omitted ALL the other ideas you read about this. If you are posting I take it you already googled this.
Hi, guys.
I have a problem with my laptop mouse. I just use the built-in mouse (not USB mouse).
sometimes it starts to move uncontrollably and I can't click anywhere. Usually, it goes to the left edge of the screen.
When I close the laptop and open it again a couple of secs later, the mouse works properly again.
Please, help me.
Thanks a lot.
