Mouse drift on laptops

Hi! Friends,

This post is especially for people who are
trouble shooting their laptops/notebooks for mouse pointer drift.

As mentioned in the previous post the best solution to solve pointer drift is to
disconnect the track connecting to your pointer stick. Its easy in few laptops to shutdown the "Track Pointer/Pointer Stick" from control panel, but it's not the case in all the laptop's as few laptop's don't have that kind of access to the Pointer Stick through control panel. So, i would suggest that you go contact your company whether they can help you out before you dissect you laptop and later repent for dissecting it.

Company like dell, Lenovo, HP provide their customers with
tools in their website for older models, try to find those tools first then you can try disconnecting the cable. So, try to find out which other way you can disconnect it. Instead of disconnecting the cable impulsively!
If you have warranty then go for customer care, in case you dont have and if you can't afford it then go to respective websites and try to know is there a
solution from the company. As every company has a research and development department working on the solutions for most common problems and after all this if you still end up with no solution you can go ahead and cut the cable connecting the "Pointer Track" manually.
Remember it was you decision to do it.
