    Ok so a few days ago my charger for my laptop (ASUS G750JW) stopped working and I ordered a replacement. The replacement charger is not made by ASUS but it is made for my model of laptop so it works just fine, this isn't the issue. However, when I use this replacement charger to charge my laptop, my mouse touchpad gets super glitchy. Like whenever I hold my finger down on it the cursor spazzes all over the screen. When I unplug the charger and use the touchpad it works perfectly fine. I don't get how a new charger could affect the touchpad but that seems to be what is happening. Does anyone know why this is happening and if I can fix it? Thank you.

    Yes the charger you bought is likely a cheap knock off outputting so much electrical interference it's interfering with devices like the touchpad and your neighbors likely have a much worse radio reception.
