    Hey I've started using my touchpad more frequently now and there seems to be a problem with it, when I use the touchpad gently, the pointer keeps jumping around slightly. Even when I leave my finger on the touchpad, it starts to get shaky. I've updated the synaptics so I don't know whats up with it.
    Any help would be appreciated ;)

    Go to the synaptics settings, under Pointing there's settings for sensitivity and Palm check. Adjust them and see.

    Yeah I've tried it, if I put it too slow it hardly moves and if I put it fast then the pointer shakes and jumps around even more

    Google for synaptics driver version 15.0.24.0, you could even try older version of driver and see how it works.
