you can always find dell drivers on their website. the ones for ubuntu will not work in windows. windows 7 64 bit are on this page http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/uk/en/ukdhs1/Product/inspiron-15-3521
do you have another card slot to use? try it there and make sure it's seated well btw, you might check to see it's compatible with Dell too, since the card is not plugging into the windows 7 software.
