Boot Camp 3.0.4 do not support Windows XP SP2???

Hello!
I have my MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.6.8 with Boot Camp 3 on it.Reading a BOOT CAM article I could see that it supports Windows XP SP2.I just installed Windows XP SP2...and when I am trying to use the drivers from MAC DVD it says that BOOT CAMP needs Windows 7.Why I can not use XP?Or where I can get the proper drivers?I have downloaded Boot Camp Drivers XP update pack 2.1 and tried touse it in that XP but just double clicking on it doesn't happen anything:(
Please Help.
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Your saying BC 3.4 is on the Mac installer disk? I picked mine up in august 2011 and it only has 3.1 on it if I remember right. How did you check it?
As of today my BC Assistant says 3.4 but the Control panel in Windows only says 3.3, I figure it an't broke I'm not worried about it.
When you insert the disk, it asks you what to do, Run or Open, select Open.
Make a new folder on the desktop in XP, drag ALL the files over to it.
Right click on the setup.exe and select one of the options:
1)-Troubleshoot Compatibility, do what it suggests,
2)-Select Properties / Compatibility / click Run this program in Compatibility mode: then select XP sp2 and work your way up.
If anything pops up about permissions then right click on it again and select Run as Administrator.
If it still won't work then open the Boot Camp folder / Drivers folder / and install each one manually.

I have a MacBook 10.5.8 with Boot Camp. I can only operate the Windows side. When I move into MacOS it does not open.

Your phrasing is not clear. How do you reboot into Mac OS? /can you describe the process step by step?
Usually, you should do like this:
- while in win, restart
- immediately after chime, press option or alt key
- wait for 2-3 seconds, you should see the boot options
- select Mac OS partition
If you have performed all these steps, and, after choosing Mac OS partition, you cannot boot into Mac OS, then your system is corrupt and should be reinstalled.

Should I Use Boot Camp or Parallels for use of a Windows Desktop?

I am migrating from a PC to a Mac; I want to take advantage of having a Windows desktop to run some apps until i buy Mac equivalent software;
I have Tiger, but am installing Leopard this weekend;
Should I Use Boot Camp or Parallels for use of a Windows Desktop?
I am tempted by not having to reboot, but i don't want my mac to slow down?
I am a photographer and use Photoshop and other graphics intensive programs.

Hi,
to achieve full computing power while in Windows you have to use BootCamp and for Photoshop and other apps of that caliber in Windows its the best.
For apps less demanding using Parallels (VMWare Fusion) is sufficient enough and the slight downgrade in speed is negligible.
You should however (if not already done) max out the RAM of your Mac.

Boot Camp won't install anything less than Windows 7 ?

My grandson tried to install windows vista on a new (late 2012 ) IMac but he says boot camp told him he could not install anything less than windows 7. Anyone else had this problem ?

It's not a problem; the Boot Camp Assistant is working as it's designed to. If desired, run Windows Vista inside a program such as VirtualBox instead.

You mean, Can I still run boot camp without Windows? because that is what you will have, one empty boot camp partition. Buy a copy of Windows 7.

I bought windows 7 download online and started setting up boot camp but it says to insert the windows 7 disk so how do i do this?

Hi Jaimie,
To install Windows via Boot Camp you will need to have a copy of Windows on a physical dvd disc.
If your purchase provides you with an ".ISO" file then you can simply burn this to a DVD and then follow the standard Boot Camp installation instructions.
Boot Camp instructions: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf
If you get stuck, just let me know the website you purchased Windows 7 from and I might be able to help you out.
Cheers

HP does not support Windows 8 Consumer Preview

think those who ask questions on why this does not work, that does not work, no Win8 drivers or printers etc for WIN8 need to realize that this is only a consumer review release, not even a beta, you installed it at your own risk as Microsoft says.
If you read the initial posted here by Walin within this forum it says: HP does not support Windows® 8 Consumer Preview...
so maybe reading it may provide you with insite

Satellite Pro L10: sound card does not support Windows 7

Hi
i have a Satellite Pro L10 so i installed a Windows 7 on my system but my laptop can not support Windows 7.
I need update of sound card for Windows 7.
The model of sound car is Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio Sound Card.
Please help me

Hi buddy
What to say first of all you will not get official drivers for this notebook for Win 7 or Vista.
This notebook is oldie and I doubt the drivers will be released.
Reading through this forum threads Ive noticed that most of the user use the Vista driver on Win 7 OS.
Maybe you should google for the Conexant AC97 Vista driver and should try a Vista driver on Win 7
Good luck

Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi?

Why does Verizon not support Windows 8 for wi fi? Are they planning on supporting Windows 8?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Verizon wi fi for hot spots does not work with Windows 8. For verification go to FAQs about Verizon Wi-Fi for FiOS Internet,
http://www.verizon.com/Support/Residential/Internet/fiosinternet/networking/setup/wi-fi/124650.htm , and click on How do I know if my laptop or netbook is compatible with Verizon Wi-Fi? . Verizon wireless home network does work well with Windows 8.
Since you can't even download the wi fi for hot spots software if you have Windows 8, I don't know how to use compatability mode to get around the problem,

I was partitioning my HD to allocate free space to give to my windows partition in Boot Camp. Now I cant access my windows partition at all. Please help.

TTBOMK the only way you can increase the Windows partition is to repartition the drive back to a single partition
Then reinstall Mountain Lion
Restore all data from backup
Create new larger partition with Boot Camp
Install Windows
Restore data from backup

I purchased Premiere Elements 13. Elements does not support Windows Vista which is our operating system. I have Elements 12 and never had this problem.

I purchased Premiere Elements 13 & Elements does not support Windows Vista which is our operating system. I have Elements 12 and never had this problem. What are my options? Do you have a compatible program for WinVista similar to Premiere Element?

This is not Adobe. Please do not duplicate threads. I have answered one of at least 3 of your threads currently appearing at the top of the list of threads in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum tonight. Please see

New to Premiere Elements 13....it does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, and OSX 10.7.

In your other thread which I have cited above, I have posted a list of choices ahead of you. There is no workaround to get Premiere Elements 13 to support Vista, XP, or OSX 10.7 that has ever surfaced.
