In Windows 7 64-bit Bootcamp 5 my USB connected mouse intermittently clicks the left-button without my input. How do I fix?

Some details:

-I've tried with two different mice, one cordless USB connected, one corded and both had the problem.

-A reboot of the system usually fixes the problem for awhile.

-I tried downloading the updated drivers (5.0.5033) but get an error message when trying to install ("Bootcamp x64 is unsupported on this computer model") and I'm not even sure if the drivers will fix the issue anyway

MACBOOK PRO (RETINA, 15-INCH, LATE 2013), OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I have an imac

I have an magic pad (same thing as the touch pad on a macbook really)

I have an usb mouse I use both in windows and osx

if your trackpad somehow was registered as actived for some reason it would seem as if it was the mouse

had some *** situations both in windows and osx when my cat sit on the magicpad

Not sure if this would apply, since my Macbook is usually closed so no input can go to the trackpad. Also, this intermittent mouse-clicking only happens in windows. I'm guessing its a driver issue.
