Reinstall Lion, run the Boot Camp assistant, download the drivers from Apple yourself and burn them to a CD. Afterward, if you choose to use the MBA as a Windows machine, erase OS X and install Windows 7 and use the driver disk you made. No one is likely going to download the drivers and upload them to you.

Wow, why didn't you just purchase a Windows laptop? I don't get it.

Well, in all fairness, MacBook Airs are by far & away the best "ultrabooks" out there... That said, even if I was going to use one exclusively with Windows for some reason, I'd still keep OS X on there & just shrink the partition to the minimum possible size (~5GB I think)...

Of course, there is another possibility that springs to mind as to why they might've completely overwritten the native OS...

Mate I'm a newbie here (but I used to operate macs more than 1/4 of a century ago but never could afford one then. Your problem was a while ago so I presume you have access to your Mac partition now, however just in case, there is a good chance you have not lost your mac partition at all; simply hold the option key down while powering on for access to a start up menu.

Just installed myself and found it didn't install properly so I will try and remove it and reinstall.

If you still need the files let me know and I will send you a copy
