Unable to install Boot Camp Update 3.1 on Windows 7 32-bit on MacBook Pro

I have Windows 7 Professional 32-bit on my MacBook Pro and have Boot Camp 3.0 now. I've tried to install Boot Camp 3.1 both using the Apple Software Update on Windows and the installation from http://support.apple.com/kb/dl996 but it won't work. Are there any ways to solve this problem?

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
do you have any kind of Remote Viewing software installed, like LogMeIn or Go To My PC ?
These are known to cause trouble with the the BC Driver packages.
Check if there are additional Graphics Adapter shown (apart from the "real" one).
If so, uninstall the remote software, do the 3.1 update and then reinstall.

  • Cannot install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit

    I recently installed Windows 7 64 bit on my macbook. I also installed Boot Camp 3.0.1 after Windows 7 installation, however, WiFi did not work. Therefore, I needed to upgrade to the latest Boot Camp 3.2. However, when I tried to install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 74 bit, I got an error message saying that I needed Boot Camp 3.1 installed first. I CANNOT find Boot Camp 3.1 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit on Apple website at all. Can someone please help me on this? Is there a way to get the complete Boot Camp 3.2 package that can simply be installed on version 3.0.1??

    here is the link to bootcamp 3.1 for windows 7 64 bit http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1336 .. and no there is no package that can be applied to the windows side to go from 3.0.1 to 3.2

  • Unable to install Boot Camp 3.1 on Win 7 on iMac Intel (suggestions?)

    I got the OEM version of Windows 7, professional and 64 bits, and installed it via Boot Camp Assistant. Got it running (no keyboard recognition), and tried to install Boot Camp for Win 7 via the Apple site:
    "Unable to install 3.1, needs 3.0".
    No problem, insert OSX disk (10.6.3), click, aaand:
    "Boot Camp 64bit is not supported on this model"
    Uh?,... I thought that my machine was supported (it's running Win7 64bits!),... any suggestions?. Am I doing something wrong?. Any help will be appreciated.

    Unfortunately I cannot answer your question but I'm hoping someone can help us. I went a step further than you. I have an iMac 8.1 Intel Core 2Duo 2.8 GHZ Processor (early 2008). I spoke with Apple Customer Support and made it clear that I had Windows 32 bit and 64 bit software and wanted to install on my iMac and MBP. The agent told me to order Snow Leopard for the iMac. I found out tonight I cannot use 64 bit on this particular iMac even though Customer Support had the serial number and data when we ordered the Snow Leopard disc.
    So, I partitioned the HD equally between Mac and Windows. Boot Camp installed Windows 7 with no problem and then encountered the same thing you did. Install Boot Camp 3.0 before 3.1. When I put the brand new Mac OS X Snow Leopard from Apple in the iMac it said 'not supported'. I tried to install but it won't.
    Funnything is Win 7 seems to be running. I am having problems with the numeric keyboard on the UBS keyboard. I haven't really tried to do too much.
    My question to append to yours is how do I go about uninstalling Windows 7 and installing Windows 7 32 bit?
    I'm sick about this but at least I believe I can install the 64 bit on my current MBP. I wanted it on both my computers.

  • Installing Boot Camp Update 3.3

    Hi. Currently, I've installed Boot Camp 3.0 on Windows 7 (32-bit) with my Snow Leopard installation disk. Would it be possible to upgrade straight to Boot Camp 3.3, or do I need to install updates 3.1 and 3.2 first? Thanks.

    You have to install Boot Camp 3.1 in order to install 3.3 version

  • Unable to install Boot Camp and Windows 8.1 on Mac Mini

    Hello,
    My computer is a late 2012 mac mini with fusion drive. OS is OSX 10.9.1. Also an apple external optical drive and a Windows 8.1 full install DVD. I attempted to install Boot Camp and Windows 8.1 and failed.
    I ran Boot Camp Assistant and first problem was when it rebooted the computer - I got a text message that said the OS was missing. After a while I tried holding down the Option key while rebooting, then I got several choices to boot from - I chose the windows disk, and windows installation started.
    I was eventually given a list of 6 or 7 partitions to chose from, to install windows into. I  settled on the one marked BOOTCAMP. It seemed the best guess. But the installer said that it could not install on this partition. Something about the wrong format or EFI or boot partition(s)?? In fact, the installer would not let me install into any of the listed partitions.
    I restarted Boot Camp and it allowed me to remove the boot camp partition and revert to OSX only. Thanks for that!
    My questions: is Windows 8.1 supported with my configuration? I know the FAQ says it is not. If in fact it is, did I do something wrong?
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Poking around, I found an installation manual which was downloaded to my USB drive with the boot camp windows drivers. It says that when I reached the point in the windows installer where I'm given a choice of partitions, I should choose the one marked BOOTCAMP, and format it. Which I didn't think to try before. So I tried again, using Boot Camp Assistant from the top.
    Failure again. This time, when the computer rebooted, I selected the Windows icon as before, but I got a text message saying that the boot manager couldn't be found, and a dead stop.
    I also found that on the option-key reboot disk selection screen, I could eject the windows install disk and reinsert it. When I did that, I got the Windows boot icon and another icon labeled EFI boot. So I also tried that icon, with the same result.
    So, I'm doing exactly what I did before (I think), but now the windows installer won't start.

  • Unable to install Boot Camp Drivers for Windows

    Mac Pro (2) 3.2 Xeon quads

    Step 3 listed in the instructions for setting up Boot Camp is to Install the Boot Camp drivers for Windows. At this point Windows recognizes my Mac Install disk 1. I get the following message: "the installer encountered errors before Boot Camp could be configured. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again." I am not sure if I needed to do something to install the Service Pack 2? My firmware is at MP31.006C.B02 and 1.25f4. When I checked for the latest firmware, it returned a message that it was not necessary.
    Maybe the XP pro x64 is not compatible?

    I did install windows xp sp2 32 bit on my macbook pro 2.2 GB and I'm getting the same ...
    When trying to install boot camp drivers, a message came up saying:
    Boot Camp requires that your computer is running Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista.
    The only option it gave me was to click the "OK" button. When I clicked OK , another message came up saying:
    Boot Camp Installer completed. The install encountered errors before Boot Camp could be configured. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again. Click "finish" to exit installer. I am running a brand new full retail version of windows xp service pack 2. Applecare will not help blaming Microsoft and of course Microsoft is blaming Apple. What a bunch of useless crap!! Can anyone help??

  • Unable to install iTunes 10.5.0.142 on Windows 7 64 bits system

    I am not able to install the latest version of itunes, version 10.5.0.142, released by Apple last week.
    I think it is important to note that there are three pending updates on my system (Windows 7, 64 bit), which keep on failing again and again no matter what the mode of update (manual via microsoft website or automatic via the program provided by microsoft). These are:
    1. Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2556532)
    2. Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538242)
    3. Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243)
    The methods that I have tried to install the latest version of itunes (all have failed as of now):
    a. Automatic via the previous version of itunes. This tries to download and install itunes in parts, but ultimately leads to the error originally pointed in this thread. Failed.
    b. Uninstalling the previous version of itunes completely as mentioned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and also using Microsoft Fixit and then trying to install the new version. Failed.
    c. Uninstalling all but apple software update, and then trying to update manually from the software update file available in c:\Program Files (x86)\Apple Software Update folder. Failed.
    d. Uninstalling all the versions of visual c++ (2005 and 2008), and then trying to install the latest version of itunes. Then re-installing the latest versions of c++ (2005, 2008 and 2010) along with updates but three as pointed above, and then trying to install the latest version of itunes. Failed.
    e. I have tried various permutations and combinations of keeping the firewall, antivirus and even the internet off and on. Failed.
    The combination of errors that I have received:
    - An error occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version=“8.0.50727.6195″,type=“win32,publicKeyToken=“1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b”,processorArchitecture=“x86”. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80073712
    - Error 7 indicating installation of microsoft .net framework 4.0 for me (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3074) and
    - Error 2 - "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2 (Windows error 2)
    However, I have seen on some websites that people have been able to install the latest version of itunes on their windows 7 64 bits system (surprising, but yeah).
    I would appreciate any pointers as to:
    ?1 How do I install the latest version of itunes on my system.
    ?2 If the steps are not included in the solution to ?1, how do I update 1., 2., and 3. mentioned above.
    ?3 If I am able to install itunes 10.5.0.142 on my windows 7 64 bit, would I be able to successfully my iPad2 to iOS5?
    Many thanks.

    I should have posted this earlier, but anyway. I restored my laptop to factory version after backing up any useful data, and the first thing I the laptop was restored was connect to the internet, download and install the latest version of iTunes. And Bingo! It worked.

  • Unable to install Boot Camp 2.1 Updater

    I've attempted several times to update Boot Camp to version 2.1. Each time I try to run the update I get the following message:
    "The installer encountered errors before Boot Camp could be configured. To retry these operations at a later time. please run the installer again".
    I've deleted and downloaded the installer on several occasions only to be confronted with the same message. I've also run the "repair installation" program on the existing version of Boot Camp to see if there is an error that prevents the update working. I've also followed the advice in the following Support Article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1845
    Running msiexec /update from the Command Line in XP results in the same error message I quoted above.
    Has anyone got any idea how I can resolve this? I'd be grateful for any help offered.

    There are lots of things that cause the installer not to cycle through. The two major are 1) a conflict of some kind with a display driver. 2) a conflict with the language of your cuurently running Boot Camp 2.0.
    If its your Display driver you need to go to -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware Tab -> Device Manager -> Display Adaptors.
    Look at how many Display adaptors you have. You really only need one(which sometimes is there twice). If you have more than one then you probably have a program like "GoToMyPc" or LogMeIn" which has put it's display adaptor there. If that is the case then you need to first unistall the program and then in the Display Adaptors section -> del the driver.
    Test if this is the source of your prblem by running the installer again.
    (P.S) there are a few PC video games and other programs that install Display drivers so if you dont have either of the Remote Access Programs I mentions be aware that that the conflicting Display Driver could be comming from another program.
    If your problem is a conflict in the language of your running version of Boot Camp then you'll need to do the following
    in Windows goto Start ->Run -> type "regedit" click OK -> in the new window go to EDIT -> Find -> type "Boot Camp Services.
    The Boot Camp setting should come up if they did not come up try another search with Boot-Camp Services. Look at the language settings. If you run in English it should have a Value of 0X00000409 (1033). If it does not then modify the info to match. This only works if your set to English. If not then you will need to investigate the values for your language.
    I Hope this helps.

  • Boot Camp Update 2.1 for Windows XP after SP3 installed?

    I accidentally installed SP3 on my Boot Camp Windows XP installation, and now BC update 2.1 will not install (fails). I currently have BC 2.0 running.
    Is there any way to get BC 2.1 to install AFTER SP3 has already been installed? Can I roll back SP3?

    Well, I had similar issues, at least, in that I had not installed the update before SP3, actually, I wasn't even aware of the update until today when I started hunting for a driver update for my graphx and soundboard, since some games that used to be stable were crashing on me all the time.
    As I actually have a licensed OEM version of XP on my bootcamped partition, re-installing it may cause me to have to call to MS to even be able to activate and I really didn't feel like doing that...
    What I found out is that you can unpack the .exe file using 7Zip (and probably other similar tools) which yields two new .exe files, one of which with almost the same name, unpack that one too and you should end up with a directory named "BootCamp20ToBootCamp205" containing a bunch of files that start with "binary.". Figure out which ones are important for you (for instance, I needed Binary.Nvidiamobile_XPBin for my MBP) and add the .exe extension to the file-names, run them and follow the instructions.
    This will give you at least a partial update for those components that are causing problems. Now all we have to do is wait until Apple makes an SP3 compatible installer-bundle so we don't have to go through this crap by ourselves...

  • Blue Screen When Installing Boot Camp Updates

    For some unknown reason, whenever I put in the OS X install disc in order to use my internet, wireless mouse, etc. The Blue Screen of Death or what I believe that to be, pops up for an instant and then my computer immediately restarts. I've tried this 5 or 6 times and finally decided to make a post. Thanks in advance.

    Everyone is having that issue. There seems to be a major bug with the bluetooth Boot Camp / wireless drivers where you get a blue screen of death whenever your computer has been idle for a while and then you start typing on the wireless keyboard.
    Wish Apple would fix this problem - my computer crashes several times a day.

  • Boot Camp Update Installation Sequence for Windows Vista ?

    Hello,
    how is the installation order for Boot Camp 3.0 ? Shall I install it after the Windows Vista installation or after the Service Pack 1 or 2 because Boot Camp 2.2 need Service Pack 2. If I look in the Boot Camp 3.0 manuals, there aren't any details about Service Pack 1 or 2.
    I thank you indeed for the help.

  • Boot Camp 3.0, Win XP and new Audio Drivers for MacBook Pro Core2Duo

    I just installed the new drivers in Boot Camp 3.0 on my 2006 Core2Duo MacBook Pro. Before the update, my audio worked perfectly, but after the update, I have a lot of static sound coming from my speakers. I can hear the audio, but it sounds staticy, if that's a word.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    It worked.
    My sound problems with BC 3.0 gone.
    My problem was that there was no internal speaker sound on my MBP with the BC3 driver...only headphones, and no way to switch.

  • Unable to install iTunes 11.1.4.62 on Windows 7 64-bit computer

    Received notice of iTunes update to currently installed version of iTunes, first on media computer, then on every day computer (both Windows 7 64-bit).  Successfully installed iTunes 11.1.4.62 on media computer, then attempted download and install on every day computer.  Efforts failed repeatedly.  Now, on bootup of every day computer, am receiving Apple error message stating that APSDaemon.exe won't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing.
    ITunes appears to be forcing me to select syncing options for iPad, iPhone, iPod devices on every day computer during installation, but I don't own any of them.  Rollback occurs when none of the options work and I choose abort, but previous version of iTunes is now corrupted and won't start.  It seems to have been uninstalled since it no longer appears as being installed in Control Panel.
    Any suggestions?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
