Usually I do a google search on drivers to see if they're causing other peoples PC's to be unstable before I install them... Especially when installing drivers for other people because when this stuff happens it makes you look bad...

Hmmmm,
Drivers can be a difficult one, a bit like BIOS? A lot of the later releases are to fix problems that some people may have had, or to accommodate newer hardware versions. So, if you are having problems, it is generally worth a try.
On the other hand, if you are not having problems it is generally best to leave well alone, as the later issues rarely provide any additional functionality with older hardware versions.
What I would have done differently, is to check the system logs when the connection was getting dropped, to see if there were any clues there.

Well she asked me to help her fix her internet because it was dropping her alot so I went with my gut and I possibly could have caused this or not I just dont know... Her pc was a mess anyway. Luckily we are good friends so she isnt really mad. If she is still having issues im just gonna roll back her driver. But, yes in retrospect I should have checked deeper into the driver I was having her install. Its just odd because accordding to her it worked better than ever for a while but then just crapped out. I appreciate the help anyway though.

Cmon' Tex just admit you are trying to get laid. Good tactic though.
The "Cyber Cowboy", that should be your new moniker. You are ignoring the real Tech. problem long enough to hit it. LOL
Check all her roomates Software, and have them update your Hardware. That should solve any problems you might have with your Manframe(sic).

Did you by chance try turning off "Use windows to configure my wireless network settings"?
Try going to the Control Panel --> Network Connections --> Wireless Connection --> Properties --> Wireless Networks and uncheck "Use windows to configure my wireless network settings".
Maybe there's some conflict with the software that came with the drivers and Windows.
