Just now, with CPU temps in the 40s, I am experiencing the jumpy mouse.

I am also now plugged directly into my router and disabled my wifi adapter. No difference.

I also changed my power settings to "HIGH" (from ULTRA) and am not seeing a difference.

I also tried a different (wireless) mouse. I don't seem to have a wired mouse that I can try. One thing I haven't done yet is change the channel on my wireless router, which I guess *could* in theory be interfering with my wireless mice?

Although it seems illogical that this computer would continue to struggle to run eq, I am probably going to just end up laying down on a new dedicated gaming desktop.

Thanks everyone for the help. If anyone has any other cards up their sleeve, please let me know.
Yeah, it's possible I suppose. Have you not tried using the touchpad for the sake of comparison? There's something else going on here. Your laptop isn't the greatest but it's far more than sufficient to run an 8ish year old game client.
