Hello everyone,
I've a Dell Inspiron 1520 Laptop with a Microsoft Notebook Optical mouse attached via USB and I've install a few days ago the final version of Windows 7.
I immediately noticed this issue: when I'm typing a message or a StickNote, sometime the cursor move where the mouse pointer is (or near it). This issue is annoying because if I can't see where the cursor is moved my text will contain confusing words... obviously!
Anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.

Solution
You should start, perhaps, by opening the mouse window in the Control Panel (icon view). Look at the two last items under the pointer options. Perhaps one of those will satisfy you, particularly the first? "Hide pointer whilst typing"

Thanks rak, but I've already checked this option and nothing is happened...
