Boot Camp 2.1.drivers updated.no-auto.kbd.Mgr.app.exe

My problems have not been quite that severe, but my recent experience with Boot Camp 2.1 and SP3 has been pretty bad. First, my colors do not seem to be displaying properly, mostly with blues turning into red (i.e., links in Firefox). Then last night I got three blue screens while using MS office in XP(which also has color problems).
Remarkably, I do NOT have any of these problems in fusion, running off the same partition....
I read another thread which suggested upgrading the graphics drivers in XP, which I am going to try, but if you uninstall boot camp 2.1, won't you have problems with SP3? Aren't you supposed to install 2.1 before you do the SP3 upgrade?

Windows 7 on snow leopard using boot camp 2.1/2.2 drivers

Hey Forum,
i am using snow leopard on my macbook, and I do not have the snow leopard install disc as I have lost it. I am intending to install windows 7 on it with my old leopard install dvd using boot camp 2.1/2.2 drivers? Can it be done? Ok in summary:
1-I partition my bootcamp using boot camp 3.1 on snow leopard,
2-process of installing windows
3-use my old leopard install dvd to install the drivers.
4-is it possible?
Regards.
Ala.

Hi,
Apple strongly recommends to use the BootCamp 3.0/3.1 drivers for Windows 7 and nothing else.
OSX Snow Leopard install DVDs can be bought at any Apple Store (and Amazon, etc.) for about USD 29
In summary:
1 - Works
2 - Works
3 - Might not work at all or you might have to use the 'compatibility mode' with the 2.x drivers.
4 - Try it
Before attempting you might wanna have/make a backup of your OSX, just in case.
Regards
Stefan

HT5639 When I start up in Boot Camp it says that updates weren't properly installed and the system is reloading. It then automatically restarts in Mountain Lion. What is wrong?

I am currently using Windows 8 and also have Microsoft office installed but those are the only thing on my partitioned space. I don't know if I installed 32 or 64 version of Windows 8. Could that be the problem?

Can you deal with XP not being supported by Apple and Microsoft? no security etc?
Can you use Windows in a VM instead of natively?
All the drives other than the one with XP will need to be pulled.
Always have backups of your system, clone that you can boot from.
Boot Camp 3.0 was the last supported. You don't need OEM 10.4.6 DVD and your system with EFI and SMC updates (Aug/Sept 2007) may not like it.
32-bit version of Windows on EFI-32 will only get 1.9GB RAM.
Installing 64-bit Windows 7 is a bit harder. Vista pre-SP1 64-bit was the best match for install on my 1,1 and that was 2006-2007.
The new owner needs to deal with this, not you. And really they are better off with a $400 PC instead. Or use a VM.
the owner should put in a new SSD for the system and $44 buys 4 x 2GB RAM. Together it will run just fine. 500GB SSD now $250 / $135 250GB. Biggest issue is a video card on these.
The grey screen - you upgraded the graphic card perhaps.
Unplug everything. Hit power for 5-10 seconds. Reconnect cables for mouse/kb and power, and monitor. You just reset SMC. Yes there is a small button - pull drive #4 and any controller in top slot #4 to see the SMC motherboard reset button but you don't need to.
Any PCIe cards can also play a role and factor into XP or Windows not working.

Boot Camp and Windows 7 - uncompatible drivers and BC 3.0

I recently installed Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro using Boot Camp. The installation wen well but when I inserted and tried to run the OSX setup disc, the system referred to known incompatibilities and aborted. I then tried to run the Boot Camp 3.1 driver but this also aborted, stating that Boot Camp 3.0 was missing. I have tried both the 32 and 64 bit Ultimate version and the Enterprise version of Windows 7, always with the same result. I then reinstalled Leopard (and created a mess in a number of other ways) to see if the 3.0 driver had been deleted by mistake. This did not help however. Is there anything I can do?

Boot Camp in Windows has nothing to do with Boot Camp in OS X. So, there was no need for you to reinstall Leopard.
Since you're using Leopard, your Leopard disc will have the 2.xx drivers, which, (apparently) will not install in Windows 7.
You'll need to get a hold of the 3.0 drivers. The 3.1 update downloaded from the Apple site won't install without 3.0 drivers installed.

Boot Camp 3.1.3 Update will not install

I have a new MacBook Pro 13-inch mid-2010 model, and I noticed that when I am in Windows 7 and try to use my headphones through the audio jack, I get no sound. I looked online here, found the 3.1.3 patch which claims will fix headphone sound, downloaded it, but when I went to install it, I got this error:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
This is frustrating because I DO have Boot Camp 3.1.0 installed, which I assume is the version needed to upgrade, and Boot Camp IS installed. I also downloaded the 32-bit version as that is the version of Windows 7 I have, and just for jollies I tried the 64-bit version but that yielded the same error.
What am I doing wrong here? How can I install this patch? I would very much like to be able to have functional headphones. Thanks in advance.

Ok, so I installed drivers from the system restore disks that came with my laptop, and the error message changed, still doesn't work, but progress is good, right?
Now it says:
"The installed product does not match the installation source(s). Until a matching source is provided or the installed product and source are synchronized, this action can not be performed.
Contact your administrator or product vendor for assistance. If there is a matching installation source, type it below or click Browse to locate it"
Now, what on earth does that mean? In the test box, the default path is "C:\ProgramData\Apple\Installer Cache\Boot Camp 3.0.0\", which doesn't exist on my computer. When I click "browse" it lets me look for a .msi file, which I cannot find and do not know where to look for.
If I click OK, another error pops up saying:
"The file 'D:\Boot Camo\Drivers\Apple\BootCamp.msi' is not a valid installtion package for the product Boot Camp Services. Try to find the installtion package 'BootCamp.msi' in a folder from which you can install Boot Camp Services"
Please, please, please, if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this, Iwould be very obliged. Thanks again in advance!

Solution - Boot Camp 2.1 Killing Video Drivers

I installed Boot Camp 2.1 earlier today in preparation for upgrading to Windows XP SP3. After it completed and rebooted, my video drivers were dead. I was using 4-bit color and the lowest resolution possible. I called Apple Support, and a fairly unfriendly woman told me "just because we make it doesn't mean we support it" and that I'd have to repartition (erase ALL my data) and reinstall Boot Camp + Windows from scratch. Wow talk about unhelpful!
I found a better solution.
In Windows, I went to Add/Remove Programs, and uninstalled the Boot Camp 2.1 Update. Then I re-ran Apple Software Update and tried again, this time using the 'Download File' option from one of the top menus. 2nd try worked and now everything is fine!

My problems have not been quite that severe, but my recent experience with Boot Camp 2.1 and SP3 has been pretty bad. First, my colors do not seem to be displaying properly, mostly with blues turning into red (i.e., links in Firefox). Then last night I got three blue screens while using MS office in XP(which also has color problems).
Remarkably, I do NOT have any of these problems in fusion, running off the same partition....
I read another thread which suggested upgrading the graphics drivers in XP, which I am going to try, but if you uninstall boot camp 2.1, won't you have problems with SP3? Aren't you supposed to install 2.1 before you do the SP3 upgrade?

Any solution yet? MBP trackpad terrible in Boot Camp. Please rewrite the drivers.

Dear Apple,
The trackpad drivers for Windows under Boot Camp have been terrible ever since you removed the physical button from the trackpad.
It is ridiculous to try to do serious work when clicks are often misinterpreted as right-clicks, or else right-clicks are interpreted as something else. Under Lion, I can make it work ok to hold down 2 fingers and then to a physical click with my thumb. (Awkward -- a 2nd mouse button would be way better, but it's functional). Under Boot Camp and Windows, though, it's broken. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
I'm considering returning my MBP for this simple little thing that you should be able to fix. Usually I carry my physical mouse around with me so I can actually have a right-button, but at the moment I'm sitting in a cafe in a chair with no room for the real mouse, and hence I'm feeling unproductive as so many of my clicks turn into something else.
I bought a MBP because I like the hardware, and I use Lion for a lot of things too, but I also do serious Windows development under Visual Studio.
People have been complaining about the trackpad drivers for years. Seriously, won't you fix it? If you need a consultant to help you do the software development, let me know. I don't have time to spend myself unless you want to hire me; it will be more productive for me simply to return this laptop or buy a 2nd laptop with actual buttons on the trackpad so I can do seirous work.
Maybe you could offer a version of MBP with 2 actual physical mouse buttons instead of the built-in crappy one.... I'm sure there's demand for it, at least to the population of your customers who use these awesome quad-core monster computers for serious work instead of writing emails and watching YouTube videos.
Sincerely,
Eric N.
P.S. I really hope Apple admits the problem and rewrites the trackpad drivers.
P.P.S. Additionally, please register a similar complaint about the lack of a physical forward-delete key on the laptop. The two huge, glaring mistakes with MBP are the lack of this simple key on the keyboard and the lack of reasonable mouse button options. Fn-delete is really annoying.

Just to update this post with the the same problem.
I also have the new Macbook Pro with SL and on Bootcamp XP installed. Everything
is working fine except the trackpad.
I´ve tried out the DVD the came with the origin Bootcamp (2.2 !), BC from SL-DVD
(3.0) and the brandnew Apple BC update 3.1.
Also tried to de-/reinstall, but trackpad´s still not working.
Anyone who could help us?

Boot Camp 3.1 and updates

I noticed that Mac OSX recently downloaded and installed an update.
How do I check for Boot Camp 3.1 updates and driver updates for Windows 7?
Boot Camp is a Windows program that starts up when Windows starts, with a diamond icon in the taskbar.
If I right-click on the icon, there is no option to Check for Updates. When I click Boot Camp Control Panel, there is no option to check for updates under any of the tabs. Thank you!

This thread is specifically for the MacBook Pro (2008 and Later).
However, I'm cool with moving the thread. Have a good one!
Forgot to mention, good job on the NVIDIA 320M drivers at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11546269 I noticed that is not in the Boot Camp section? It's confusing sometimes.
This is the best computer I've owned since the Atari 1040 ST... it's that good!

You can upgrade to Windows 8.1 for free. Just open the Windows Store in Windows 8 and you will see an option to download Windows 8.1 update. The update may take several hours.

How do I restore Windows 7 in Boot Camp after the Lion Update?

I was hoping my Lion update would be as smooth as other users' - unfortunately, it has messed up Boot Camp. The partition is now "Lion Recovery HD". I would like to know:
if the original Boot Camp partition has been erased - i.e. I need to do a full reinstall
how to go about recovering my original partition (I did a backup of the partition prior to the Lion Update)
if my Windows 7 is an upgrade disk, will I need to install Vista first?
Thank you!

this is what i see:

Can't get Boot Camp to run since updates

I did all the updates as a good Apple user now I find I cannot boot up my Windows disc. When I restart computer holding option key the screen goes white and nothing happens. What should I do?

Something appears to have not installed correctly when the "updates" were installed. Can you tell me which updates did you installed before the issues began? Was Windows already working normally prior to the updates? By the way, which version of windows did you install?
Meanwhile see if you can do the following:
right after you hear the startup sound press and hold the ALT (Option) key until a menu appears on the screen.
It should let you choose between Mac OS and Windows.
Choose Mac OS and press Enter or click the little arrow below it to start into Mac OS.
Once you are in Mac OS choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu and go to Startup Disk. Choose your Mac OS volume there to make your computer auto start from that volume next time.
Close the menu again and you are done.
You can use the Boot Camp assistant to delete your Windows partition, recreate it and reinstall Windows afterwards if the windows installation never worked right in the first place.

Boot Camp Assistant; Flash Drive; Missing Drivers

Hello, thanks in advance for any input.
I'm setting up Boot Camp on my MacBook Pro (OS X Version 10.8.2).
Boot Camp took about eight hours to generate my flash drive and download the required support drivers.
Windows 7 then installs without errors.
When finished it's missing most, if not all, of its drivers.
I've run through this five times now, each time being careful to make sure I'm downloading drivers.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Let me know what other details you need.
Have a great one

I found it. The directions mention drivers autorunning during step 4 (Page 7) or if that doesn't work to open the BootCamp folder. It is on there, but it neither auto runs nor is it called BootCamp. You'll find it instead under a folder called Windows Support. Just run setup inside of there.

Will Boot camp disappear again when update to OSX 10.10.1?

Hi, I just recover the boot camp bugs in Yosemite 10.10, and now Apple is asking to update to 10.10.1, will it affect the Boot camp again? Anyone can verify this?
Thanks

but I'm not sure the Bootcamp partition can be backed up in the same way.
You will either need to back up Windows to an external NTFS partition, or use Winclone.
Are the developers of OS X aware of these problems?
There is enough evidence to show the problems. Some users have contacted Apple Tech Support.

Boot Camp disappeared

I have a XP partition that was built by Boot Camp and everything worked great for over a year. All of a sudden boot camp is missing both in XP and in the Mac partition. Now XP won't boot normally. Luckily I just backed up everything because I want to install Win 7. I had XP set as the default drive to boot, so now I have to hold down the Option key to boot Mac. Why would the Boot Camp assistant be missing too. This happened after Mac upgraded itself and one file was an upgrade for Boot Camp.
What happened? Also Mac is running very slow. I did a Verify Disk and it reported everything is OK.
I really don't know much about Mac to figure out what is going on.
Also how do I upgrade my Mac OS. Is Snow any better than X 10.5.8 or should I just upgrade to the latest X OS.

Snow Leopard speeds up a lot of functions but does tend to come with more bugs because it is almost a total rewrite of MacOSX. At v10.6.2 now, some of the bugs are gone. I wouldn't use anything else.
Also Snow Leopard brings you Boot Camp Assistant 3 and updated drivers on the SL install DVD.

HT202008 I am having issues with my Window 7 on boot camp. My hardware is Macbook Pro Mid 2010 model and working on OS X 10.9.5. Recently I went to windows 7 to do a system upgrade but failed and was told to update the bootcamp drivers.

I installed boot camp5 but seem to be the wrong version and change to boot camp 4 which was updated okay. However I still cannot do the updates. Can someone advice me please? Thank you!

Please see Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support for the appropriate version of drivers related to the specific version of Windows 7.
