Can't load drivers for bootcamp

I have a Mac with the following specs: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3. It came with Leopard and I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7
I purchased Windows from Amazon unaware that the software comes in two versions 32bit and 64bit. I ordered the 64bit and was told by a couple of store clerks that it should work fine with my system. I got hold of a book by David Pogue on the subject and he recommends the 32bit version. I think he may be right.
Everything went ok until it came time  to load the drivers for the Mac. I inserted the Snow Leopard Disc and nothing happened. A message appeared on the screen that said something like  no support for 64bit machine?
Should I get the 32bit version of Windows or is there something I could do?
Thanks.

Most of us on this forum don't use Boot Camp or MS Windows. However there is a Boot Camp forum where you are more likely to get some assistance. Click Apple Support Communities then type Boot Camp in the search field and you will be able to locate it.

  • How can I install drivers for bootcamp without using the mac install dvd?

    I installed windows 7 in bootcamp on my mac. I put the drivers on a FAT format usb stick so they should be installed while the windows installation was running. The most things are working on windows like the i-sight-camera. The problem is that the microphone doesn´t work so I look for a solution for 3 days, no result. Normally, you use the mac install dvd to install the necessary drivers but windows doesn´t want to read the dvd. And yes, you can download the drivers on the apple platform, but that doesn´t help me at all.
    Thanks in advance. (sorry for the language)

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You didn't install Boot Camp drivers. It looks like you downloaded these drivers > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3173
    Those drivers are only for the graphic card and Bluetooth, not anything else, so you have to download the Boot Camp drivers on OS X and install them in Windows

    Loading windows 98SE works fine until I try to load the drivers that come with the motherboard.
    Windows will then not load in anything other than safe mode.

    Hello,
    Memory module, 1 of them could be faulty but I know windows 98se does not like a lot of memory.
    This website says it is made worse with large memory video cards.
    http://www.dewassoc.com/support/win98/win9x_512memory.htm
    Try this then out the other stick in.
    http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=304943
    If you swap the sticks around what happens?
    Here is a program that can test the memory.
    http://www.memtest.org/download/1.51/memtest86+-1.51.floppy.zip
    Download, extract it to a folder, run the install.bat and it will make a memtest bootdisk.

  • Can't load drivers for Canon MP610 onto new iMac since loading Leopard

    Hello, all you amazingly helpful folks.
    Bought new iMac + Canon MP610 yesterday. Successfully installed printer on 3 Macs and a PC, and all was well.
    Then--discovered that Leopard DVD was hiding in the box. So, installed Leopard uneventfully. Then--found that scanner wouldn't respond to any commands, and subsequently, I could no longer print from the new iMac ONLY (other Macs still printing fine).
    So--I deleted all Canon printer-related folders on the new iMac, and tried to re-load the drivers from the Canon CD. MP Drivers won't load. Keep getting FAILURE message. Tried re-booting, unplugging, in all combinations. Printer still works from the other Macs. Maybe loading Leopard after the original MP610 installation confused things??
    What to do next?
    Also--NO DRIVERS available for MP610 on Canon web page.
    Any assistance much appreciated!!!
    Thank you.

    You may have already done this so forgive me if you have, but I would try deleting the contents of the /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinters folder. I would then navigate to the /Library/Receipts and delete the Canon MP610 xxx.pkg file.
    Then control-click on the Printers list in Print & fax and click on "Reset printing system..."
    Then empty the Trash, unplug the MP610 USB and restart the iMac.
    Then I would install the MP610 v6.91 OS X driver. I found it via the Canon Australia web site (http://www.canon.com.au/products/allin_one_printers/all_in_one_printers/mp610support.aspx).
    Once the installation is complete, reconnect the MP610 to the iMac and wait. The printer should automatically appear in the Print & Fax application.
    Also, in future, you should be posting this on the Leopard printing forum...

  • Can't Download Windows 7 Drivers for Bootcamp?

    Hi,
    I have been trying since 2 weeks to download windows 7 drivers for bootcamp but the process just gets frozen at that point. I live in a 3rd world country and don't have a good connection. My DSL's speed is 2mb and I can easily downoad movies and hd seasons but because of the awesome servers of Apple, I can't download these much needed drivers.
    Is there some direct linking to these drivers so I can download them or any other alternative?
    Thanks a lot

    Using Boot Camp is the only method to obtain the drivers, be patient and try again.

  • Satellite A205 S4797 - can not find drivers for my drive

    I have recovery disks and Windows Vista installation disk. When I try to install error meesage says it can not find drivers for my drive.
    I tried scannong CD drive and it cannot find them do 32-bit, 64-bit all have different drivers and if so where do I get the one I need if not from the install disk or recovery disk from manuf.?

    If you cannot use original Toshiba recovery DVD for OS installation I can imagine there is some problem with DVD itself (some missing file or scratch) but Microsoft Vista installation MUST work on this notebook model.
    If this doesnt work too there must be some problem with HDD. Just if you want to install WXP you need to load SATA driver at start-up but Vista must work.
    Can you please tell me what happen when you try to install Vista from Microsoft Vista installations DVD?

  • Solaris 10 won't boot up "Cannot load drivers for /pci@400.....

    This is the error message that I am getting on a Solaris 10 sparc server
    scsi: no major number
    cannot load drivers for /pci@400.....
    Can't load the root filesystem
    Type 'go' to resume
    {0} ok
    Is there a way for me to correct this issue. It looks like I am missing a scsi driver to boot up the server? Is there a way to boot into single user mode, mount the filesystem and rediscover the hardware, etc.....

    First i guess you have to verify that you can find the disks with a probe-scsi-all
    next you can boot it of a CD-rom/dvd into single-user:
    boot cdrom -s
    .. or similar into single-user from a jumpstart image:
    boot net -s
    Then you can mount the root disk under something such as:
    /mnt
    and rebuild the config with:
    devfsadm -R /mnt
    be careful if you have a mirrored filesystem though, you don't want to update just one of the mirrors without first breaking the mirror..

  • Can we load data for all levels in ASO cube

    Hi All,
    Can we load data for all levels of members in ASO cube in 9.3.1.
    Regards

    Yes you can load data for all levels in an ASO cube in any version HOWEVER, none of the upper level data in any cube will be there when you look for it. You will get a warning message in the load because ASO cubes don't store data at upper levels. It is the same as loading data into dynamic calc members in BSO cube. It will do the load without compalints, but there will be no data there (At least you get the warning in ASO)

    I'm wetting for respond .. and thank you

    Go to:
    http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Here choose:
    +Notebook+
    +Satellite+
    +Satellite C+
    +Satellite C50T-A+
    +All+
    +Windows 8.1 64bit+
    Now you will get all drivers for this notebook series.
    Note: On the page you will find different WLan driver since different WLan modules have been used in the different models.
    Just check each of the drivers
    To get the Bluetooth working, you need to install additional Bluetooth Filter Driver Package. This depends on the Wlan module your notebook support.
    The proper Bluetooth Filter Driver Package I found in Satellite C50T-B series

  • Can't find drivers for display

    Hi, I can't found drivers for display Toshiba TruBrite.
    That's why I had frequnce on display only 60 Hz.
    Could you help me with this trouble?

    LCD technology is different and cannot be compared to old monitors. LCD displays work on 60 Hz refresh rate and this value is fixed. It cannot be changed.
    Doe to this fact you cannot change it.
    I don't understand what you mean with display definition but if the right (Toshiba offered) driver is preinstalled everything will be OK. There is nothing that must be defined. Absolutely nothing.
    TrueBrite or not there is nothing to be defined.
    So if the display driver is preinstalled and if you use right display resolution everything is OK.
    Be happy and have fun with your toy. ;)

  • Can't find drivers for Lenovo G50-30 for Windows 7 32-bit

    Hi,
     I can't find drivers for Windows 7x32 bit for my new Lenovo G50-30. Looks like Lenovo support doesn't have them. Am I wrong?

    hi ziris,
    Can you try these drivers:
    Chipset:
    Intel® Chipset Device Software (INF Update Utility)
    Bluetooth:
    Bluetooth Driver (Intel, Atheros, Realtek, Broadcom)
    Camera:
    (AVC, Bison) Camera Driver
    If the  above drivers doesn't fix the unknown device under Device Manager, can you follow this guide on how to install the drivers via their Hardware ID or you may want to consider installing Windows 7 64bit (this would be best if you'll be utilizing 4GB RAM and above).
