Hi Mike and all. THank you for the wealth of information. I have a copy of windows 7 32 and 64 bit opporating systems. The weirdest part is when i'm finished installing windows and it comes to installing the bootcamp driver disk, i got to setup and the installer says it can not continue. I remember with my old laptop from 2011, i could install bootcamps drivers just fine. Does anybody have any further ideas? i'm fairly sure that it isn't a windows disk issue. Also, when i look at the windows partition it isn't labeled boot camp. Does this cause any problems? I realize i can use vmware fusion but i need the extra ram and processing power for programs for development. THank you and i'm so sorry for the long email.
