BootCamp Windows 7 Help

Hello I have the macbook air 2012 mid model. I recently installed windows 7 32 Bit via bootcamp and everything went perfectly. I then proceeded to install the bootcamp support 4 which is compatible with Windows 7 32 Bit. But though the installation goes through the drivers are not installed properly i think. There is no sound and the resolution/graphics are terrible. Do you know what might have went wrong? I can connect to the internet though which some other users weren't able to.

After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and the function keys on an Apple keyboard.The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1. 1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2. 2 Insert the Mac OS X disc.If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    3. 3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
      If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows
      Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.

If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.

Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
