I don’t think there’s any need to muck around with anything. Just find your Mac 
here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
and there’s links to the relevant Boot Camp driver package for your Mac 
(including the new Mac Pro)

Cheers
Ken

Mac Pro - $10K?
I don’t know if it’s true, but I heard some time back that some developers had 
bought MacBook Pro for its hardware, removed the Apple OS and installed Windows 
7. Apocryphal?
I know a 14yo who uses his mother’s desktop Mac (one of those things that has 
everthing behind its screen) with Parallels – it performed well enough for the 
commercial Windows games he’s allowed to have, but it took a bit of stuffing 
about with DVD drivers as I recall. December 2012.

Do you mean Mac Book Pro or Mac Pro - that heniously expensive cylinder they're 
releasing?

Apple have a thing called BootCamp that dual boots into Windows, loads all the 
right drivers and so on.
