I have tried connecting manually but it just says unable to connect

have you tried the 'fix the connection automatically' through win 7? i have a feeling that the wireless adapter is 'sleeping' or on low power standby

I have tried that as well, all the drivers are updated.
This is weird because in insecure networks I can connect no problem, however if there is encryption key it will not connect at all. Not even with limited connectivity

1. Can your wifi connect in OS X?
2. Have you tried removing the wifi drivers and reinstalling the them?
You can open bootcamp file with WinRar or 7Zip and find the individual drivers.
