Try this:

Configure your touch-pad to behave as a "microsoft compatible mouse".
Install your special "mouse.sys" that came with the keyboard (I assume 
that it DID come with such a beast, or perhaps "mouse.com").

Then run the Windows Setup program and specify "Mouse Systems" or "Other"
for the mouse type, NOT "microsoft or compatible"!!

This may force Windows to use the mouse driver, rather than trying to go
to the bare metal.  As a result, you may get lucky.
