There are lots of troubleshooting steps that you can try at this point of time. Even I checked and found that Wireless Drivers for Windows 7 are not available for this model. In Windows 7, there is no particular driver for the Camera as the computer will use the inbox driver shipped with the Windows 7 OS. However to avail the proper functionality of the Camera application, you can install the WebCam Companion Software for the Windows 7 OS from the below link:
For the wireless driver and utility, I would suggest that you install the Wireless driver for Windows Vista as I have my personnel experience that Vista drivers usually works with the Windows 7 environment. Once you successful install the Wireless driver, the computer will get back its wireless functionality and you can enable and disable the wireless feature using the Windows Mobility Center from the control panel.
Please download the wireless driver and update for the computer from the below link:
These drivers should install normally with out any issues. If you are getting an error message indicating the Vista compatibility error, you can use Universal Extractor to extract the setup files of the these drivers and then run them separately
