Can i install win7 with mac os X.4?

i have mac Os X.4 installed on my macbook pro so i need to know i can if which boot camp is compatible with it to install win 7

No version of Boot Camp besides a now-expired beta will run on Mac OS X 10.4. In order to run Windows 7 through Boot Camp, the computer needs to be upgraded to at least Mac OS X 10.6; Mac OS X 10.6 DVDs are available at the online Apple Store.

Can't install WIN7 with an external USB DVD

Hi,
Read all posts regarding the install of WIN7. Still none actually worked for me.
1. Details: MacMini late 2009, OS X Mavericks, unusable Apple SuperDrive, external Asus DVD on USB. Stick with drivers for WIN7, created by downloading them from Apple website as BootCamp refuses to create it. WIN7 DVD.
2. Steps I did:
a. I tried using BootCamp. First issues, BootCamp refuses to create the USB with support for WIN7. After hours of searching on forums, I did it myself by downloading an archive from Apple.
b. I tried then just to install WIN7. BootCamp cannot see the DVD. Of course I used external DVD since the SuperDrive is not reading any DVD/CD.
c. Looking on YouTube, I tried a different approach. I created a partition for WIN in DiskUtility, started Mac and pressing ALT. Unfortunatelly the external DVD was not seen, so I could not acces WIN setup files.
d. Found a crazy solution (too crazy to try it) in which I had to add some lines in some OS file: such as MacMini Model Indetifier and BOOT ROM version. It supposed to let my MacMini to install WIN7 from an external DVD. Here is the website for those that have courage to do it:

3. It worked on OS X 10.8. I installled WIN7 from that external DVD by using BootCamp without any trouble. Worked like charm.
4. Why I need WIN7. To run FrameMaker10 and CorelDraw X6. I need them in my work.
I would really appreciate any valuable input. I really need to install WIN7 by the end of this week.
Thank you.

Mac OS X will only boot PowerPCs with Firewire, not with USB. That's the reason it doesn't work.

Can't install Win7 with Raid 0 on a K9A2 CF

Motherboard:    MSI K9A2 CF
DDR:     8GB (4*2GB)
Proc:      AMD Athlon 620
HDD's:      2*Hitachi 640GB (same drive models)
So the problem i'm having is that i can't get Windows7 to get installed in raid 0. I bought this set of hardware to do some experimenting with small business server 2008. I've installed SBS2008 in Raid 1, and seemed to work (but i've never crashed a disk to test it). The tests went fine, and since a month or two this PC/Server is doing nothing.
Now i've been trying to get Windows7 installed but can't get it going with a Raid 0 setting (that's why i'm doubting if the RAID 1 with sbs was working correctly).
First problem i'd run into was that my DVD wasn't accepted (missing device driver). I've created a bootable USB disk and seem to work.
The problem starts when i should select the disk.
First, i've setup the following in the RAID-Bios:
I've done it with 1 array, or with 2 array's it doesn't change anything.
In the normal bios (updated last night to the latest version, which actually slows the systems down during the install). I've selected RAID in this screen
RAID (i've selected RAID)
When i get the option to select a drive, it doesn't display any drives so I select the option to add a driver.
These are the drivers i've downloaded:
But when selecting these drivers I've get a negative response
(with or without "Hide drivers that are not compatible......"
When i download other drivers (I actually tried them all) i get some response:
But when i select this driver, it takes several minutes to proces:
But it comes back blank:
When i select in the bios other options (like IDE)
It comes default with a disk:
But this is half of the array (1 drive). When i try to partition it, it fails. So it isn't accessible.
Last thing: i've tested with all 3 available Bios options (IDE, RAID and AHCI) in combination with all (Win7, Vista and WinXP) drivers. But there are no differences.
I understand i made a long post, but normally i just figure it out myself with researching on the web. I have tried everything i can think of. But it seems that:
1. I made an error configuring the raid-arrays (with one big array, the results are the same).
2. I made an error in the bios? (setting should be raid, other settings i should think of?)
3. I'm working with the wrong drivers? I think i'm doing something wrong driver related but can't pin the problem.
4. Or... ?
I'm open to suggestions, i've run out of option. :(
Thank you.

Great link, seems to work. So after trying everything it was just a simple driver error.
I've tried the drivers from 1337 but they didn't work. But the chinese drivers did work:
http://www.rayfile.com/files/edf377e1-ec6f-11de-aad5-0014221b798a/
I don't know how or what. But the RAID console seemed to get 2 disks (2 raid arrays) and installed and formatted correctly from there on.
Installed Win7, booted and all the hardware was accepted.
If anyone has a line to MSI or someone from MSI is reading this: If needed i'm willing to run some kind of debugger if it helps. But otherwise I would suggest checking the drivers offered on the website because the drivers on the MSI website are faulty for some of your users. On the K9A2 they will not work with RAID with Windows 7 64-bit (the official drivers I mean).
Bas to answer your question: I have no particular interest in running a 64-bit operating system. But when it failed to work it became a challenge to get it working. I could have switched to 32bit immediatly but I don't like to give up the first moment something doesn't go as planned, and in the end I had so much time invested I just wanted it to work under 64bit .
Frederik, thanks again for the link, really helpfull. Thank you all for helping and giving suggestions.

Can't install Win7 with K8N Neo Platinum (MS-7030)

Hi,
with an XP system running smoothly on my old machine, I decided it's time for a Win7 installation. However, the Win7 installation crashes after first reboot with a BSOD some 20 seconds into the windows boot process (logo displayed). I suspect missing RAID (nforce3) drivers as the cause of the problem as I'm trying to install onto a logic partition of an existing RAID, but I can't find any drivers for the board/RAID chipset for Win7. Even MSI seems not to provide anything beyond WinXP64, which is a bugger.
I tried the latest drivers from nVidia for the "3000 professional series" (hoping they mean nForce3 by that), but they do only support the RAID as a device class, not as a controller, which is odd (the manual says that both should be listed in the additional driver selection menu of Win7 install).
Can someone help me out, please? Am I missing something? How did you get Win7 to run on your MS-7030-powered machine?
TIA!

Using ancient technology it is unfortunately pretty normal things will be hard to do. Nvidia stopped nforce 3 support long ago (3000 professional series does not refer to nforce 3) so there are no raid drivers for Win7. Check this thread of another forum on running raid on a K8N Neo2 Plat. (also Nforce 3): http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/solved-k8n-neo2-platinum-msi-nforce3-win7-x86-raid0-t72428.html

How many Sapphire Sapphire RADEON R9 270X can i install in my mac pro 2009?

How many of the graphics cards can I install in my mac pro 2009? Sapphire Sapphire RADEON R9 270X
Thanks

Why? do you use FCP-X? that will benefit from two. Also gaming in Windows where you can use Crossfire
You have two 6-pin power feeds so you will need a small 450W PSU - those come with two 8-pin and two 6-pin.
Those can often fit in the optical drive bay and cost $25-75 range.
"500W" is NOT for the card! that is the minimum PC PSU only!
when buying look for card that uses only two 6-pin and not an 8-pin power.
75W for the PCIe slot, and 150W from two 6-pin cables, most GPUs fall into the 200-250W at maximum stress levels8-pin is basically two 6-pins and 150W feed
> we CrossFired a pair of Radeon R9 270s in our 2010 Mac Pro tower. Under Windows 7 64bit Ultimate, it registered 145 FPS in the Diablo test.
http://barefeats.com/tube06.html
Keep in mind that the Mac Pro tower can't feed enough power to the dual 980s, dual 290Xs, or dual 7950s.
We used an auxillary power supply to compensate.
For the hard core GPU rendering, there are external expansion boxes with their own power supplies.
In an earlier article, we featured the Cubix Xpander which facilitated the connection of 5 GPUs to the Mac Pro tower.
If you favor an AMD GPU like the Radeon R9 290X, MacVidCards can modify it to run at PCIe 2.0 bandwidth in your Mac Pro tower.
The Sapphire Radeon R9 7950 Mac Edition is available from OWC and TransIntl.
February 6th, 2015 -- Dual GeForce GTX 980s vs other Dual GPUs running multi-gpu 'aware' apps
February 6th, 2014 -- (UPDATE) GeForce GTX 980 GPU versus 8 other GPUs running Games and OpenGL Benchmarks
January 29th, 2015 -- GeForce GTX 980 vs 9 other GPUs running Resolve, LuxMark, and Octane Render
December 28th, 2013 -- Does Final Cut Pro X 10.1 render faster on Mac Pro towers with Dual AMD GPUs? What about Motion 5.1?
Things to keep in mind:
The Radeon R9 280X we used was 'un-flashed.' It booted OS X fine but there was no startup screen. Also, when we checked the speed of CPU-to-PCIe-to-CPU communication, it appeared to be running in PCIe 1.0 mode instead of PCIe 2.0. However, unless the GPU intensive app saturates the PCIe 1.0 bandwidth, it will not run any faster in PCIe 2.0 mode. http://barefeats.com/tube12.html
Which is one reason why you might want to buy pre-modified cards from http://www.macvidcards.com

Hello Chris,
thanks for getting back to me. I managed to install the AIR using command line
and -silent -EULAaccepted options. Still having issues with installing Picaboo X

without issues
thnx

Hi,
I'm sorry you're running into problems with the installer. Was there any additional log information provided? It appears that it's been truncated. When the installer runs, do you see any dialogs, progress bars, or errors? Finally, did you get any errors when you ran the AppleScript?
Thanks,
