Thanks but this is not the issue I'm afraid. Right now, when I move the pointer from one monitor to the other, indeed there's a 10cm vertical jump occuring (left monitor is horizontal, left vertical). That's not a problem for me and that's not my question. My problem is that occasionally, the pointer literally STAYS STUCK along the edge of my vertical monitor and I have to make huge moves so that finally it passes to the other monitor. As I said, it occurs sporadically only.

@drake035 as I already commented on your're answer, we need to make sure what the resolution and the alignment in you're advanced display settings are. Would be nice if you could either describe it or post a screen shot.

@drake035 Albin does have a good point, and your description of the vertical jump makes it seem like there is some setting that is a bit off. Whether it's the resolution or the monitor 1, monitor 2 that is in the screenshot. I sometimes encounter the same behavior, but only when dragging a window from one monitor to the next.

I spent whole day scratching my head over day. Why can't Windows approximate the location and move the cursor to the nearest possible pixel? I don't think anyone would expect the mouse cursor to be on the exact spot. This is not intuitive at all.

This is NOT solution. This problem is solved by @Emre-Guldogan's answer below (superuser.com/a/1526277/48426) which describes a gap between the screens on the Display Settings applet.
