Thanks plodkiller, your post helped me out tremendously.

@arkoh, the file is on your Mac OSX install disk 1.
When you view that disk from My Computer in Win7, the path is:
BootCamp > Drivers > Apple > BootCamp64.exe

How do I run this as administrator? And the Vista compatibility?
Right click on the BootCamp64.exe file. You will get a menu. Select "Troubleshoot Compatibility". That should set BootCamp64 to run in either Windows XP SP2 or Vista SP2. Then (if you have User Account Control On), a Yellow Shield will appear in the Win7 Task Bar. Click on that Shield and you'll get a window asking you to allow the program to run. This is giving "Administrator" access to the BootCamp64.exe program. Click on OK.

You will finally get a warning that this program may cause issues. Just click on the OK or Next buttons. Mine ran perfectly on a mid 2008 Mac Mini 1.86Ghz Dual Core model 2GB RAM with OS X 10.5.8.
