HID mini driver questions, Noob Alert

Hey there, i've just downloaded the WDK and been looking through the hidusbfx2 sample, and reading countless websites the last week trying to figure out how to get started.

I'm trying to connect an eGalax USB touchscreen to windows as a HID. So I can use the extended touch features of windows 7. There's a driver for the touch screen to be a mouse, and also a touch screen driver to enable it as HID but will not allow for the extended touch features to be unlocked. this is why I've been trying to find out about writing drivers, and it seemed hidusbfx2 or an older sample called vhidmini was on the right track.

I only have access to hidusbfx2 on the new wdk I think. I built the driver, which made the .sys files and all that. But when it comes to modifying the sample to make my touch screen appear as a HID, I do not know where to start. If I could get some helpful pointers, or samples I could read.

Though it is not something I can spend too much time on, as life is quite busy atm. But I really want a driver to allow me to do this, if maybe there is someone here who could help me out for a small fee, if I have to actually learn to code a whole driver, or if its as simple as information being passed from my normal mouse(touchscreen) driver installed atm to a virtual hid device.

Some clarification on what options I have, would be appreciated
