Hi:

 

Go to the device manager.   When the wifi adapter is missing a driver, there will be a device listed under an Other Devices category, labeled as a Network Controller.  The Network Controller device will have a little ! mark next to it.

 

Please post the hardware ID for the Network Controller device, and I will then post the link to the W7 wifi driver you need.

 

Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID for a device...

Here is the link to the wifi driver you need...
