Motorola Droid X :: Corrupted Device Drivers?

I am running the DROIDX, Android 2.3, on Verizon. For my problem I have coined the term "Ghost Fingers" because the major symptom is my touch screen reacting to input that doesn't exist. I have been unable to link a pattern of occurrence or duration to any combination of external circumstances. Though I have noticed that symptoms seem to flair after hours and the condition in general has been deteriorating. The symptoms occur independently of any apps running. The condition has survived two o.s. updates and a Master Reset (actually forced me to perform said reset). I do not currently have nor have I ever had root access. The summation of the aforementioned conditions has led me to the assumption that the drivers for my touch screen have been compromised and that I need to replace or rewrite that section of the kernel that translates position sensitive capacitive changes into computer commands.
