Hello,

For the past month or so, my touchpad has been malfunctioning—almost like it’s having seizures or something—and I’m not sure what the problem is(external mice are working fine ). I’ve updated all my laptop drivers, especially the ones for the touchpad, and done a lot of searching online for a fix.

When I use the touchpad, it works fine for a few minutes and then starts acting oversensitive, causing the mouse pointer to twitch when my finger is on the pad. When these episodes start, the top corners of the touchpad usually stop responding.

Although this issue began about a month or two ago, it has progressively gotten worse since then and the frequency is starting to rise. I’d really appreciate any opinions or suggestions on what might be causing this problem and how I can fix it.

Thank you,
