Mandriva Linux 2007 is proprietary software, which means you need to buy it. You can, however, download and install a free trial-version, named Mandriva Linux Free 2007. Take a look at Mandriva's official website, where you can find a lot of useful information http://www.mandriva.com/en/download/free
The free version of Mandriva can be downloaded at the distro's website at the link below. You can also purchase the full version there.
Mandriva was created in 1998.
Mandriva Linux was created on 1998-07-23.

Mandriva should include a package manager to install and remove program automatically. I believe it is called "rpmdrake", though it may have changed in newer versions. It automatically downloads and installs programs for you.
It works well using ndiswrapper on Mandriva 2007 but it is not natively supported.
You can by installing Windows in the normal fashion, but if you do, Mandriva Linux may be erased.
Perhaps you could try the following: chkconfig --level 2345 Lisa on and service Lisa restart
