Posted By admin On 03.06.20- Nov 03, 2017 By installing Windows 7 first, then upgrading Windows 10, we can end that suffering! In this video, I will show you have to do just that and more! I will be using a 2009 Macbook.
- Apple does not support Boot Camp Assistant installations of Windows 10 on 2011 and earlier iMac models. The exact list of supported Mac models is given below. The following Mac models support 64-bit.
Weeks after the release of Windows 10, Apple has finally updated Boot Camp Assistant to add support for Windows 10. Yes, the latest version of Boot Camp is fully compatible with Windows 10.
Install Windows on your Mac. Boot Camp is a utility that comes with your Mac and lets you switch between macOS and Windows. Download your copy of Windows 10, then let Boot Camp Assistant walk you through the installation steps. I deleted all partitions from a MacBook Pro and installed Windows 8 on it from a disk, then upgraded to Windows 10. However, after running Windows Update, it still lacks drivers for WiFi, audio, the touchpad, and a few other devices. I can't seem to find those drivers available for download from any official sources.
UPDATE on 24/09/2018: If you don’t have access to the macOS or erased macOS from your computer, please refer to our download Boot Camp drivers without Boot Camp Assistant guide.
Mac users who would like to install and enjoy Windows 10 on Mac machines without going through driver issues can now download the newest version of Boot Camp drivers from Apple. The new Boot Camp drivers should address issues with the trackpad on some MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models.
If you have no idea about Boot Camp, it’s an assistant software available on macOS to help users easily partition the hard drive, prepare bootable Windows media, and then install Windows alongside your existing macOS.
Before downloading Boot Camp drivers, we recommend you to make sure that your MacBook computer supports Windows 10. The list of MacBook models that support Windows 10 can be found on the Boot Camp support page.
The support page also notes that Boot Camp supports upgrading from Windows 7/8 to Windows 10, provided that you install latest Boot Camp drivers on your Windows 7/8 machine before upgrading to Windows 10. If your Mac comes with Fusion Drive, it turns out that Boot Camp Assistant will help you install Windows on a hard disk drive, not the Flash drive even if you have sufficient free space. Also, note that Boot Camp doesn’t support installing Windows on the external hard drive.
There are two ways to download Boot Camp drivers for Windows 10.
