That is one method and the bootcamp assistant utility has instructions for doing so. Personally, I put the iso image and the drivers on seperate DVD's and installed that way. And, I think the method you want doesn't work on all mac models. If it doesn't show up as an option in your BC assistant, then it doesn't work on the Mac model you have. In which case, burn the image and drivers to seperate disks and go that route.

Would it be possible to install bootcamp from a .izo image on a flash drive as well as putting the boot camp drivers on this flash drive? Thanks, all. reading this thread with interest as I want to install boot camp soon with sighted assistance.

where did you get the drivers? I got mine from the bootcamp utility, and made a disk with the drivers before actually installing windows. They worked fine. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Bruinenberg" <[email protected]>

THanks.
This is very weird.
I seam to be the only one with the issues.
I can give the exact error it gives me.
It says, bootcamp encountered errors before it could install.
Has anybody seen this before?

I actually used the drivers from the OSX dvd and they work fine.

There was an issue with the bootcamp drivers a year or two ago where
you would get an error but that was a few versions back I believe.

That's interesting. My windows 7 came with two different discs: one for
32-bit and one for 64-bit.

Actually, it works like a champ. I installed win7 64 bit in a bootcamp partition and have no problem. I had sighted assistance though, and used a
64bit ISO imagedownloaded and burned from Microsoft store.
Maybe the instructions didn't account for the 32 vs 64 bit thing. I know that the DVD has both versions on it and you have to choose one you want
to install - at least I think so.

Hi all.
So, i followed Chris's instructions for installing windows under
bootcamp. It worked wonderfully.
I have a question, does windows 7 or 8 not work under 64 bit?
I cant get it to work at all.
Any help would be appreciated, does anybody run windows 64 bit on the
list.
