Windows 8 touchpad drivers (synaptics) on unsupported models

I had a hell of a time finding W8 drivers that worked for my W150HNQ/Sager NP5160 with a Synaptics v7.2 touchpad.
(and if you're wondering, the W150ER hotkey driver will work for the hotkey/gpu switching)

To save you all the trouble; I used Synaptics Touchpad Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit), 8 (64-bit) - Notebook - Lenovo Support (US)
90.23mb/ver 16.6.4.13

If it vanishes, feel free to contact me, if you find a newer good version of the drivers, feel free to post here.

Synaptics tards put generic unified drivers on their site that (and I tried several versions):
1. BSoD on Win7 (multiple machines of vastly different years tried)
2. Don't even install in Win 8

Think next time I get a laptop, I'm probably gonna avoid Synaptics... and probably Clevo/Sager too. I don't throw my machines away every couple years. I expect good driver support for a reasonable amount of years, and these companies don't even support Linux at all, dumping it on the community. (Win 9 support, for example, would be somewhat unreasonable - too many years passed by then - but they can at least support 2 major OS versions. and Linux.)

I would appreciate if people badger the Synaptics people with me. There really is no excuse to be posting broken generic drivers that not only don't work, cause bsods, while Lenovo's drivers will work great for Clevo...
