What causes the cursor to jump?

by jwa . Updated 25 years, 7 months ago

I have a user with an HP 900 notebook with WinNT 4.0. When she is using MS Outlook 98, she reports that the cursor (insertion point) skips back. For example, she can be typing in the body of the message and the cursor will skip back to one of the header fields (TO:, CC:, Subject).

I have another user with Windows 98 on a Dell Latitude notebook who experiences a similar problem when typing in Word 97. The cursor will jump back to a location, frequently in the middle of a sentence of a previous paragraph.

Any ideas about what causes the cursor to jump, or better, how to make it stop?

Thanks in advance.
