I have a laptop computer. How do I stop the touchpad scroll from going up and down the page on its own?

Question

I touch the touchpad scroll to go down a few lines and it won't stop. It continue to go to the bottom of the page.

Answer 1

Your settings may be too touchy, go to your control panel (Windows) or System Preferences (Mac) and adjust

Answer 2

Trying going into the Control Panel and the Mouse icon. See if there is a page under that which will let you adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad. Turn it down and see if that resolves the issue. Sometimes if it is too sensitive just laying your hand near the touchpad can activate the mouse.

Answer 3

i have had that before aswell i have a compaq presario v2000 and its really sensitive like that it anoys me sometimes as well but there are ways to fix it by going under control panel and clicking mouse and it will guide you threw that way or a way i deal with it is i scroll down (on the touch pad) then i scroll up a bit (on the touch pad) and that usually works its a little confusing but it works for me! I hope this helped

Some times it will randomly do this. Make sure no moisture is near it as thats what it detects. Make sure you don't have sticky fingers, then stick a tincy bit of water on a kitchen towel then gentally whipe. Then restart the machine.

Note: I said a tincy bit of water, no more than 5 drops!

Answer 5

it ought to correctly be damaged or only a touch defunct. i recognize after I play video games consisting of X-container 360, Gamecube, even lower back to N64, in case you carry the route pad down or in a route at the same time as equipment is became on, it will save transferring in that route. perchance attempt restarting?
