Have you updated your graphics driver lately? Also sometimes an ActiveX change can do it... As a first step I'd try disabling the pad or nipple and see if it behaves normally with a mouse... then I'd start looking at graphics things.

Good luck!

It is usually the niple or pad in my experience - we have had a few go this way but they should work with an external mouse.  Sometimes even just plugging a mouse in and removing it can fix the issue.
