Re: Confused about bootcamp drivers for windows7 installation on mac

Hi, Thanks first of all for replying. I've failed miserable to install Windows 7 under bootcamp in El Capitan. I think that part of the problem is Bootcamp in El Capitan which seems to work differently to all the descriptions I have seen here on the list and on Apple's pages. When I start

I agree. And remember, we're talking two different things here. Hotspots are not the same as webspots. I mean, they kind of are, in a sense, but not exactly. Chris. - Original Message - From: "Ricardo Walker" To: "Macvisionaries"

BootCamp Assistant shows different checkboxes depending on whether or not your Mac has a built-in (or formerly had a built-in) optical drive. If you have, you don’t get the chance to use an ISO. Typically USB boot (from MBR) is not supported on these models, so you will need the optical

I did away with my cable 2 years ago and only have Internet at my house via iPhone hotspot (T-Mobile) . I have been happy but I do not do much streaming. I think if my tmobile signal was stronger I would stream more video; FYI if T-mobile is your provider, you can do Netflix streaming that

Hi Sabahattin, Thanks for this. I'd better not attempt anything as ambitious as you hinted at: I have far too little knowhow in programming. you mentioned that the bootcamp partition onto which Windows 7 should have been installed should have been partitioned prior as ntf. I kind of assumed

Hi, Ah, how strange! When I was researching what version of Windows I could run on my late 2010 macbook air, the highest version I found was windows 7. I understood that I just could not run windows 10. Otherwise I would have gone for windows 10. Thanks for this Andrew > On 13 Jan 2016,

Yeah. Firefox is okay, but for such a great blind developer on the team, it can't even display page-loading progress bars on Windows. So don't expect the great Firefox to become accessible any time soon. Yes, you can use Webvisum still, but with the added security risks associated with enabling

That was exactly part of the confusion: I did put the iso file on the desktop as I had read something to that effect in some of the support pages. But bootcamp 6 on my late 2010 macbook air would not even recognise it and there was no option to point it to the iso file. It insisted on having

Re: Confused about bootcamp drivers for windows7 installation on mac

Andrew, You might need to call Apple to verify this. Information I found indicates that El Capitan on your model Mac will only support Windows 8 or newer IF you already had Windows 7 installed under Bootcamp, then this would work. So this means that as a NEW installation, Windows 7 is
