You did not mention the Version and Build of WinEdt but I
suspect it is not the latest one. This is a bug in Vista only
triggered when you are using Large Fonts with certain display
options. Anyway, I was able to reproduce it last summer and it
has been fixed as of build 20070706 on:

    {!20070706: Don't Move the cursor (problems with large fonts on Vista)}
    //SetCursorPos(pt.x,pt.y);

You'll need a newer version of WinEdt. Then let us know if the
problem is indeed fixed on your system.
