This process does not take any longer than using Bootcamp Assistant, but it is less intuitive. NOTE: these BOOTCAMP installs will NOT run unless you have already run the BOOTCAMP setup found on you Mac OS X install DVD. You will need to D/L v3.1 AND v3.2 exe files and install in order. Go to the Apple web site, Support, Downloads, search for BOOTCAMP, and download the updated BOOTCAMP installs. Once you have connected to a device on the Windows side, then you can turn on Bluetooth on the Mac side and both sides will be able to use bluetooth devices.Īt this point you can now use the Bootcamp icon to restart back into Mac OS X, or on restart, hold down the option key and select Mac OS X.Ĩ. Otherwise, Windows will not be able to connect to the bluetooth device even though Windows detects it. NOTE: IF you are using a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard with a laptop, make sure you have Bluetooth disabled on the Mac side first. Once in Win 7 again, all the hardware will be recognized, and you will be able to select the full screen resolution, airport card, etc. Restart, using the option key, select Windows 7 (Bootcamp).Ħ.Once in Win 7, insert the Mac OS X install DVD, and run Setup.exe to install the bootcamp drivers. Once install was complete, remove Win 7 Install CD (Otherwise, when the system restarts it will try to boot from the install CD, but can't, and a folder with a question mark will be displayed)ĥ. In Win 7 setup, selected the BOOTCAMP partition and let the setup program format the partition to NTFS. Restart holding down the option key, and then selecting the Win 7 CDģ. Insert Win 7 install CD after creating a 30 GB partition with Disk Utility.Ģ. I was able to install Win 7 though with the following procedure:ġ. I ran Disk Warrior to make sure everything on the drive was properly constructed and set.
