Mac OS-X and Windows 7 issues
My keypad works great within OS-X, but when I boot up under Windows 7 it does not right click and the eject for the optical drive does not work
Is this a good question?

The older models only supported Windows 7 32bit make sure you have the correct version installed.
You'll likely need to check your version of BootCamp services. Apple updated it a few time for Windows 7. You don't want the newest as it only offers 64bit drivers.
Sadly, the age of your system does make it hard to maintain. I think you need to start saving your pennies for a newer system. I would recommend getting a i Series CPU based system (new or used). Then you can run the newer Mac OS's as well as newer versions of Windows if that is what you want.
Here's a good writeup on bootcamp: How to use Boot Camp with Lion
Here's an Apple T/N on the keyboard mapping: Use your Apple Keyboard in Windows with Boot Camp

Your system can support Mac OS-X Lion (10.7.5) thats the last supported on your system. You will likely want to max out the RAM to 4 GB.
