    The last couple days, the cursor on my SR has been "jumping". Even when I don't touch the trackpad, the cursor jumps from place to place, making it very difficult to click on anything. Shutting down/restart sometimes temporarily fixes the issue (comes back in a few hours). Could this be heat related? The room it's in is warm, but I used it in a hot dorm room at the end of last summer with no issues.. I honestly don't know where to start.
