Alternative Touchpad Driver

My laptop's touchpad works better when the generic windows driver is installed, rather than the Synaptics driver. Except the generic driver doesn't have scrolling capabilites. Is there an alternate driver for Vista laptops besides Synaptics??

The specific problem is the touchpad click. It takes 3-4 touches to get a click. I modified the settings to the most sensitive, yet this doesn't solve the problem. It clicks every time on the first point without the Synaptics driver.
