We have a Dell laptop. When my wife worked in Word, the cursor would jump. Have a wireless mouse, changed batteries which did not help. Could not find how to turn off the touch pad, so I taped a business card over the pad to test it and lo and behold the jumping stopped. Seemed like a sleeve or any brush over the touch pad would make the mouse jump. Doesn't look very nice but it works!
