It's June 2010, and I used TouchFreeze with Windows 7. It worked for me.

2011 and just discovered the thread. Touchfreeze appears to work for me too on Windows 7 64 bit. Such a relief!!

I had the same problem with my new computer and couldn't find any answers that helped except one that seemed a bit far fetched. Nothing else seemed to help so I decided to try that one. I laid a bit of cardboard over my touch pad and tried tryping in notepad...it worked! The cursor stopped hopping around and allowed me to type normal.

So I found an old greeting card, cut it to fit the touch pad and attached it with black electrical tape. It looks quite neat, still allows me to be able to use the touch pad if I ever need to, and solved the problem.

Of course this will only work for those using a mouse and not needing to use the touchpad on a regular basis. I use a wacom art tablet..the pen acts as my mouse.

Hi there

You may try this
click control pannel - then keyboard and in keyboard properties window set
repeat delay - 66%
repeat rate - 66%
cursor blink rate - 33%

that worked for me after many trials ......ending with blowing my keyboard with
pressurized air.
