[Wayback/Archive.is] ThinkPad T440p Touchpad Swap: Installing Correct Drivers – YouTube
One of the most common upgrades for any Haswell (xx40) series ThinkPad is to replace the awful button-less touchpad (sometimes referred to as the ClunkPad) with a T450 touchpad that has the proper buttons for TrackPoint users. However, getting the buttons to work properly on xx40 hardware can be tricky – particularly if you are running Windows 10. In this video you will see how to get drivers installed that will allow you to use the TrackPoint as if this were a T450! As always thanks for watching! Some of the guides I used for this video:

PLEASE NOTE:
BEFORE YOU PUT IN THE NEW TOUCHPAD, INSTALL SOME EXTRA BUMPERS/RUBBERS ALONG THE TOP OF THE LID, LEFT AND RIGHT OF THE WEBCAM.
THESE SHOULD BE ABOUT TWICE AS THICK/HIGH AS THE SMALL BUMPERS THAT ARE THERE ALREADY.
Recommended size ~WxH: ~6 x 2 mm or ~1/4 x 5/64 inch.
PLACE THEM IMMEDIATELY LEFT AND RIGHT OF THE EXISTING BUMPERS.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN SCRATCH MARKS ON THE SCREEN FROM THE NEW BUTTONS!- Synaptics T450 driver
