Try to see if it is installed by going to "Start" and search for Intel wireless display.
If you have it will show up and you can run it.

If you don't have it, you can download it from here

What wireless adapter did you purchase with the system?  The default is usually a Broadcom or Atheros adapter - neither of which will work with widi.  You must have upgraded the system to an Intel wireless adapter to use widi.

That adapter won't support Widi - it's not Intel.  It's an Atheros card.

Assuming the rest of the system (CPU, particularly) supports Widi, you must replace it with a supported Intel wireless adapter.

ejn63 is correct.  I assumed (bad on my part) that you had all the necessary specifications.

Per Intels web site, the following adapters are supported.

Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000, 1030
Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6200, 6205, or 6230
Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150
Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250 
Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300

Make sure you get one that is compartible with your system.
