Pro Graphics Adapter

How do you get Windows 7, running in Boot Camp, to recognize the hardware on a Mac-Book Pro?
My girlfriend is using a Mac-Book Pro 13" and wants to use some Microsoft programs, so she decided to use Boot Camp. Boot Camp made a 40g partition on her hard drive and installed my copy of Windows 7 professional 64bit. the version of Boot Camp that she has is 3.0.4 and it will not save the Windows support software. When she boots Windows, it does not recognize the display adapter (nVidia GeForce GT320m). Instead it shows "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter." In addition to that the sound does not play.
Admittedly i have not used macs on a regular basis since OS 8 and I am lost now in the Mac world.
If anybody knows how to fix this problem, i would greatly appreciate it.
The partition is formatted as NTFS, and the windows support software wants to safe to a FAT file system. It will not burn to a CD or save to any place else (i have tried formatting an external drive to a FAT system, i have even created a partition and formatted that as FAT... and still it will not save)
You cannot write to the Windows partition in OS X unless you install NTFS-3G. Regardless, you don't need to download that. The drivers are on the OS X install disk- just boot into Windows and put that disk in. Then, go to Apple's website and download Bootcamp 3.2 which has updated drivers.
