The laptop's touchpad ia also called as Synaptics touchpad or Synaptics pointing device. These touch-sensitive pads senses the position of a person's finger on its surface to provide screen navigation, cursor movement, and a platform for interactive input.
So, it is very important to keep these touchpad devices uptodate.

Instead of getting new drivers, you can simply re-install the driver you are already having....for this :
- Right-click My Computer
- Select Properties - A small window will open up
- Click on the Hardware tab >> Device Manager
- You will see the list of all the hardware devices that are installed in your computer.
- Scroll down to Mice and other pointing devices. Click on that.
- You will see Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad, place the cursor there and right click
- Click on Update Driver
- In the Hardware update wizard, click on the last selection - NO not this time and Next
- Place the Compaq Utilities disk in the CD-ROM and click next to select automatically
