[SATLUG] Annoying mouse problem

[Jeremy Mann]

Happy Thankgiving everybody! I have a really annoying mouse problem on my
Inspiron 4100 laptop. Every 3 or 4 minutes the mouse goes haywire and shoots
all over the screen then returns to normal. In the past plugging in an
external mouse (PS2 or USB) would cure the problem. However now its
affecting the external mouse as well.

Is this a hardware problem or driver issue?
