This is the most likely solution:
- Press Win + I to open Settings
- Go to System → Display
- You'll see a diagram representing your three monitors
- Click and drag the displays to match your exact physical arrangement:
- Display 1 (Laptop) should be positioned exactly centered between Display 2 and Display 3
- Ensure there are no gaps between the monitors in the virtual layout
- The tops and bottoms should align perfectly in the diagram

That diagram accurately reflects my monitor setup. Small laptop monitor is on the left and two much larger desktop monitors sit in the center and right.
Going from right to left across display 2 to 1 … if the cursor is at the bottom of 2, it jumps up. If up a little higher, it goes straight across. If closer to the top of 1, it jumps down. These are the green lines. If the cursor hits anywhere on the red line, it should stop. Instead, it pops down to the top of monitor 1.
if i raised the bottom of 1 to match the bottom of 2, it makes the cursor jump worse.
