Downgrading Pavilion 15-n287cl to Win7

Wife got a new Pavilion TouchSmart 15-n287cl and she detested Windows 8.  I told her I'd downgrade her to 7 after she spent some time with it and hated 8... disabled Smart Boot, got Win7 installed just fine.  Booted into 7 for the first time and tried to install drivers both from the disc and from a bootable USB and got told that none of the drivers would work.  Curious, as I've never had issues in the past.  So I went on the HP site and viewed the drivers for my product:

Nothing of value is listed in the Windows 7 options.  Has anyone had a similar experience when downgrading/when trying to find Win7 drivers for a computer that came preinstalled with Win8?
