My question here has been flagged as a duplicate when it's clear, at least to me, that it's worlds apart in both scope and relevance to the question that it's meant to be a duplicate of.
Not only is the proposed question specific to laptops, it's also incredibly broad. My question, by contrast, is asking about a piece of hardware specific to desktop computers that it is usually notoriously hard for Windows 7 users to obtain specifics for using a native software solution. This is evidenced by the fact that none of the answers to the proposed question correctly answer mine despite said question having existed since 2009, and by the fact that the only correct answer to my question is a command-line one.
