Bootcamp no device drivers found (Windows 7 64-bit)

Hello,
I am desperately trying to install Windows 7 64-bit on my mid-2011 MacBook Pro, on a 100g partition made by Bootcamp.
My Macbook is using the latest Mavericks update OSX.
I am using a Windows 7 .iso trial downloaded from Microsoft DigitalRiver and am using the Bootcamp 5.1.5621, as advised by Apple staff on this website.os
I have an official and working Microsoft Windows activation code with which to activate the trial, once installed.
However, first of all, Bootcamp 5.1 fails to recognize the .iso file. So I burned the .iso to a DVD. I have downloaded the latest Bootcamp Windows Support drivers (as said, 5.1.5621) onto a fully functional and accessible USB drive, which is MS-DOS FAT formatted and inserted in the USB port the whole time.
Now Bootcamp detects Windows 7 on the DVD and starts the installation procedure. Macbook resets, Windows starts installing.
And then, after selecting language and OK'ing 'Install', I get the dreaded Windows Explorer screen informing me that 'No device driver has been found'. In the directories on the USB, I flip through all the files but no .exe or other executables are encountered.
As far as I can see, I'm doing everything by the book. So why isn't the book working?
Looking forward to your advice.

1. The USB needs to be USB2 not USB3.
2. From Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems
Requirements for all Windows installations
In order to install Microsoft Windows using Boot Camp, you need the following:
An Internet connection
An administrator account in OS X to use Boot Camp Assistant
The keyboard and mouse or trackpad that came with your Mac (If they aren’t available, use a USB keyboard and mouse)
A minimum of 2 GB of RAM, 30 GB of free disk space are recommended if you are installing Windows for the first time, or 40 GB of free disk space if you are upgrading from a previous version of Windows
An authentic Microsoft Windows full install disc or ISO file
A built-in optical drive, or a compatible external optical drive is required if you are using an install disc
8 GB USB storage device, or external drive formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) to install the downloaded drivers
3. From Boot Camp 5.1: Frequently asked questions
Can I use a downloaded (ISO) version of Windows with Boot Camp?
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 and later), MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 and later, including Retina models), Mac mini (Mid 2011 and later), and iMac (Late 2012) can install downloaded (ISO) versions of Windows 7 and 8.

'No device drivers found' error Windows 8.1 - Windows 7 downgrade installation

Hello,
There are numerous threads with the same issue online, but none of the solutions have worked for me, so I'm posting my own. I did contact Microsoft and Lenovo, but Lenovo is asking for money that I can't afford for tech support, so I'm hoping someone here
can help me out.
Here's the situation:
I have a Lenovo Y510P that came with Windows 8.1. Half a year later, I'm sick of 8.1 and want to downgrade to Windows 7 (I know that simulation softwares like ClassicShell and such exist, but I would really rather just use Windows 7).
I downloaded a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and burned it onto a DVD disk.
I also downloaded all of the Windows 7 device drivers from this Lenovo site: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/ideapad-y-series-laptops/ideapad-y510p-notebook?TabName=Downloads
^I had to specify the model number and OS, so I'm hoping I downloaded the correct drivers (all of the drivers are .exe format, is that what it's supposed to look like?)
I put all of the drivers onto a flash drive.
So, I am now equipped with a DVD with Windows 7 on it as well as a flash drive with all of the drivers on it.
I boot from the disk with the DVD and flash drive attached. Windows 7 installation begins and here I get the error, 'no device drivers found.' When I click 'browse', I see that the flash drive is recognized, but the files on it aren't.
What do you guys think the issue is??
Best,

Hi,
How do you installed Windows 7 on that Machine? Is the machine UEFI based?
We may follow the below article to install Windows 7 64 bit on UEFI based computer:
Installing Windows 7 on UEFI based computer
Besides, when did you received the error message“' no device drivers found.“ ?
For the device drivers, we'd better make a contact with the manufacturer to check if we have the proper drivers available.
Best regards

Access to installed device drivers on windows using Java?

Is it possible to get access to installed device drivers on windows using java.

Java has APIs for accessing the OS, The OS has APIs for accessing devices.
Java does not have APIs for direct access to devices.
However, depending on the device, you get what you want most of the time. You would only access the device directly if the device isn't supported by the OS or Java directly.

NI Device drivers for Windows 7 64 bit operation system

I downloaded NI Device drivers Feb. 2012 version. When I ran it, there was an error message pop-up, "\dcd_feb12_1.exe is not a valid Win32 application." My computer has Windows 7, 64bit operation system. I called help desk and I was told that it should be compatible with 64bits machine. So, would you please give me an advice? Thanks.

I'm telling you that it is very likely the downloaded files are corrupted and therefore will not run. Everytime I saw that, I found it was due to the company firewall.
If you don't have the install DVDs, I recommend getting a hold of your local NI representative to see if they can hook you up with some discs.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

If you've installed the correct version of iTunes, you have all the drivers there are. The iPhone does not support bluetooth file transfer or sync. The only thing for which you can use Bluetooth with a PC is tethering.

Bootcamp no device drivers Windows 8.1 64 Bit

Hello,
I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit on my Mac Pro (Late 2013)
So far, I have tried the following:
USB 3.0 Drive created with the Boot Camp Assistant
USB 2.0 Drive created with the Boot Camp Assistant
USB 3.0 Drive created with the Windows USB Creation Tool + Manually adding Boot Camp Support Software
USB 2.0 Drive created with the Windows USB Creation Tool + Manually adding Boot Camp Support Software
The issue I am having is that I am unable to continue past the first screen in Windows Setup, I get an error message stating that no device driver software has been found, and to locate the software. I've tried selecting all possible drives in the browse menu, and there is no software found.
I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or if the Boot Camp Assistant software is just broken or something. But any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I installed bootcamp 4.0 4033, installed window 32 bit but can't install the drivers for some reason i keep getting error message. i have a macbook pro mid 2011 version. Please help

I installed bootcamp 4.0 4033 so that I can install windows 7 32 bit on my mac. Everything works fine until I try to install the drivers and I get an error message stating the version of windows does not work with the drivers I am trying to install. I have a feeling somehow I am downloading 64 bit drivers when I need 32 bit. I spoke to Apple and they said I can't use 32 bit windows.. but that is not what the support site says (it says I can as long as I use bootcamp 4, not 5). Also, my bootcamp assistant is version 5.. I have no idea if that matters. Help please.. been searching online for hours.

How TO install Amd Graphis Drivers In 32-Bitt Windows 8 System???

Hi:
See if this works. If it doesn't then you will need to install the supported operating system (W8.1 64 bit).
Download and run the W8.1 graphics driver from your model's support page...Close out of any error windows.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-135683-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
Go to the device manager and click to expand the Display Adapters category. Click on the Standard VGA Adapter. Click on the Driver tab. Click on Update Driver.
Select the Browse my computer for driver software method and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp67327. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way. Then reboot.

Loading Hyper-v devices drivers for Windows XP Task Sequence

I'm trying to create a Windows XP reference image using SCCM 2007 R3 with MDT 2010. XP installs and boots up but video, mouse, etc do not load. NIC is working so no network issues. When XP comes up I can't use the mouse
(a huge pain). From hyper-v client I can ""Insert Integration Services Setup Disk" but first, I have to close all the pop-up windows for "unknown devices". Since I don't have a mouse, it is difficult close those windows.
Can someone please advise how to load the hyper-v devices I have tried to make a package of the "vmghost.iso" then run "setup.exe /quiet /norestart" but this task fails in the task sequence.

Hi,
Please go to see if it is configured properly:

ITunes 10.3.1.55 on Windows 7 64bit device drivers are not signed

I have Windows 7 Ultimate and upgraded to iTunes 10.3.1.55. Now iTunes will not reconize my device. It appears that Apple has incorrectly signed the device drivers and Windows will not install them. Has anyone come up with a solution to this, short of disabling didital driver enforcement?
Tom

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?
