I have an Acer Extensa, Windows 7 & a mouse & I get the problem too, but only intermittently,often when I´m typing a block of text rather than just a couple of sentences. |

Julia, I have that trouble occasionally and was told that it can happen when your charger is too close to your lappy. |

I did see something similar in a magazine yesterday (not the same problem though). It mentioned somebody whose laptop went off intermittantly. Removing her magnetic bangle stopped the problem, apparently anything magnetic can affect the pc. |

Julia, Did you try running in safe mode as suggested by Rollo? If you did, Did it resolve the problem? If it did then have you done a scan? Is your cursor at "stand-still" when you are not typing, Malware or a virus could present similar to how you described, |
