I have a Sony laptop which uses the Alps driver. Until Sony offers an
update, this worked for me:

After that was installed, Windows Update (optional) found a newer version
from Alps, once it saw I had an Alps touchpad installed (versus the generic
PS/2 one). I installed that, and that works fine too.
