Windows – Enable trackpad tap-to-click in BootCamp on 1st-gen (non-multi-touch) MacBook

Apparently, the trackpad driver in later model MacBooks (those with multi-touch trackpads) has trackpad tap-to-click support. Is there any way to enable this in Boot Camp on a first-generation MacBook?

I'm running with the latest Boot Camp update (2.1) and Apple drivers. I've tried both XP+SP3, Vista, and Windows 7 RC under Boot Camp and haven't been able to figure this out in either environment.

It seems to be available with an update to Boot Camp 3.0 included in Snow Leopard.

From Boot Camp 3.0 FAQ page:

  • Improved tap-to-click support - The ability to tap the trackpad to click the mouse button is now supported on all Mac portables that run Boot Camp.
