        The drivers can be downloaded from the manufacturers site.

            Buy her a MacBook! If she can't suss out problems with her own PC then she doesn't deserve a real computer.

                Stick win7 on it, that will find the drivers.

                  The old 'I upgraded my machine and it doesn't work' situation.

                  I've lost time of the number of times that's happened to me. These days I leave the original machine as is & stick a VM in it to save the hassle.

                  Google my boy. Google.
