Laptop, cursor jumps for no reason while i am typing...

I have a problem with my cursor. I'm using a new acer notebook running vista. No matter which app I am using I can be typing when the cursor will switch up to a previous place inserting the text I am typing. very frustrating to say the least!
I have carefully watched and my hand is not near the touchpad and it happens with or without my usb MOUSE plugged in.

In all applications, different times, jumping erratic lines/spaces. I've tried a USB mouse, I've tried w/out any mouse - all to no avail.It s NOT accidental touching of the pad...

I have searched the net but have not found anything really useful other than "touchfreeze", other than that, can you recommend anything to solve this damn prob?

Thanks!

No objection from my side... the only reason i didnt award this is that neither suggestion worked.

I am using touchfreeze with partial success...
