The OpenOffice suite is free and windows compatible: downloadable from 
www.openoffice.org,
results compatible with Microsoft Office programs (hem, not if you go into
complex page settings with tables, though).

Purely for writing: there's something called AbiWord. I've used it a couple
of times, don't like it so much, but the advantage is you don't have to get
the whole suite, say if this person has little storage available.

cheers
