Will Windows Vista work with Bootcamp 3.0.4 (325)?

Will Windows Vista work with Bootcamp 3.0.4 (325)?  the documentation says that I need a Win 7 installation disc.  I don't want windows 7; I want Windows Vista.
How do I install the drivers?

You don't provide any info regarding your computer but Vista is not supported by the newer Apple computers: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4410
You could use a VM like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox to install Vista.

  • Will Windows Vista Work

    Okay here is my problem, my desk top which ran off of Windows XP crashed. It's not worth fixing either. My laptop has Vista loaded on it, will my ipod work with Vista. I have heard a while back that it won't but need some go aheads from people who have Vista and it is working fine.

    i'd be very careful about that. lots of people have had problems with ipods and vista, including failed ipods and crashes. but then again as you said , it has been ok in some cases. so its all up to you on that.

  • Will a DSP version of Windows XP work with Bootcamp?

    Hi all. I am a semi-recent Mac convert. I have used Windows-based computers my entire life. I am an engineer and I use a lot of 3D modelling and FEA-analysis-type programs, all of which require a powerful computer and all of which are Windows-based. I bought a MacBook Pro with Tiger a couple months ago and will never go back to a PC for regular everyday computing. Very wonderful machine and well worth the money. I only wish now that I had waited for Leopard to come out so I would already have Bootcamp.
    I now would like to upgrade to Leopard in order to get Bootcamp so I can set up a partition for XP. I realize that this requires a purchase of a full version of Windows and OS 10.5. I would like to purchase a full DSP version of XP Professional, since it is generally less expensive than OEM and has unlimited installation capability, rather than just a single license. DSP, from what I understand is supposed to be identical to the OEM version, minus a manual, a box, and tech support. I don't forsee a problem installing this on my Mac with Bootcamp, but I wanted to know if there's anyone else out there who has tried this and succeeded/failed at it before I start messing with my system. Remember, this is a full version of XP Professional that I'm referring to...it's just that it's a DSP version with a volume license, rather than OEM, with a single license. Thanks!

    James Bond 007,
    Alright cool. Thanks for your help. My only prior experience with any operating system was with Windows. Buying a Mac has certainly shown me that I don't have to deal with regular system freezes and crashes as I did with Windows.
    Barlsaxshorty,
    OEM stands for "Original Equipment Manufacturer". OEM versions are usually what comes preinstalled on a new computer. Like DSP (Delivery Service Partner) versions, they don't come with a box, a printed manual, and usually no tech support or rebates. This means the software can be sold for much much cheaper than retail versions.
    As per James Bond 007's response, you will be able to install an OEM FULL version just fine. A full version means that you are installing a particular type of operating system (such as Windows) for the first time. An upgrade is only for owners of previous versions of that software line. For example, someone with Windows 2000 currently could buy an UPGRADE to Windows XP at a significantly lower price, which only includes those resources necessary to make the upgrade that the previous version didn't contain. A FULL version of Windows XP is what would be installed on a computer that did not previously have a version of Windows on it, such as a Mac. In order to run Mac OS 10.5 AND Windows XP through Bootcamp, you will need to purchase a FULL version, whether it's a retail, OEM, or DSP version.

  • Will Windows 7 work with no problems on a Mac yet?

    I have a Mac Mini, 2.0ghz Intel Core 2 Duo model.
    I don't know how accurate or not this is, but I remember hearing that Apple mentioned they would release an update for Window s7 compatibility in Boot Camp late 2009.
    Has this update been released yet or no? If not, I hope it isn't delayed to late 2010 and I have to wait forever to get Windows 7 on my mac, I already have a sealed copy waiting to be installed.
    What is the missing incompatibility anyway? What won't work right if I were to install it now on my Mac Mini?

    Has this update been released ye
    No
    What is the missing incompatibility anyway?
    You may be missing a couple drivers. Or maybe not. You won't know until you install it.
    For further related questions you should really post them in the Boot Cam forums:

  • HT1899 Does Windows XP work with Mountain Lion or not compatible?

    Does Windows XP work with Bootcamp in Mountain Lion or is it not compatible?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Boot Camp 5, the version that comes with OS X Mountain Lion, is only compatible with Windows 7 and soon with Windows 8.
    However, if you upgrade from an older OS X version and you have Windows XP or Windows Vista installed with Boot Camp, you can continue using it without any problem, but you won't be able to update the drivers

    Probably won't work. You can buy a full license for CS6 which is already two versions and soon to be three out of date or you can subscribe to Creative Cloud.

    Forget it - you may get it to work if you have a suitable version of Acrobat. Remember PM was pronounced dead in 2004.
    1. PM7 on Win7 or 8 is a disaster waiting to happen.
    2. The Postscript driver is now part of the Windows OS.

  • Will Microsoft Intune work with Windows 10

    Will Microsoft Intune work with Windows 10?  I tried to install says agent is not installed

    Hi,
    The client cannot be installed, however you can enroll Windows 10 devices using the builitn OMA-DM agent, and enroll them as Mobile Devices, that works, supported, most likely not as Jason pointed out as well..

  • I have a ibook G4 which has become redundant as my phone will no longer work with the version of itunes installed (latest it can use), how can I back up my phone to transfer to a new computer (a PC now)?

    My iphone 4s (7.1.1) will no longer work with my ibook G4 which is running 10.5.8. I have a PC which i'm now going to have to use, I've manually transferred my music and photos, but how do I go about transferring my contacts and calenders. What does itunes on PC sync to in terms of contacts and calenders?
    Thanks!

    You can use iTunes to sync the contacts, calendars, notes, Safari bookmarks, and email account information on your computer with your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. iTunes also syncs this information from your device to your computer—for example, if you add contacts on your iPad, syncing adds those contacts to Windows address book or Outlook Express on your computer.
