It only connects to the internet in the dorm which is unsecure but with limited connectivity there is no router in the dorm but it is their internet they are not borrowing it from someone else. her roomates can connect with windows 7. It also will only connect with limited connection at her house and it always says that the correct connection key is missmatched.

Yep

Turn off encryption (passwords)
disable firewall and AV (JUST TO TEST)
check to see if she is running homegroup or workgroup

Check to see if she has a win 7dvd to do a repair install

Etc
