Window 8 32 bit Boot camp?

I have already installed windows in Imac (late 2012). But im not able to install the boot camp in Window 8 32 bit. So let me know which version boot camp is supportable in it.

Which versions of Windows work with Boot Camp 5.1?
Boot Camp 5.1 supports 64-bit, non-Enterprise versions of Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1. This version of Boot Camp doesn't support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or any 32-bit version of Windows. Depending on your Mac, you may be able to use an earlier version of Boot Camp to work with other versions of Windows. For details, see the Boot Camp system requirements for Microsoft Windows.

Windows 7 64 Bit Boot Camp install on iMac 27" (2010) without int. DVD drive

I have a current 27" iMac (bought last year) and the internal DVD drive doesn't work. It's new, has NEVER been used. I guess it's dust inside, but cleaning CDs didn't help. I don't want to bring or send my iMac to the Apple repair service because normally I don't need this internal DVD drive.
Hence I'm looking for alternative ways to install Windows 7/64 via Boot Camp. I have rEFIt-0.14 installed, an Original Windows 7 Retail-DVD (and a ISO image of it), an external USB DVD drive (Samsung), an external USB hard drive 160GB (LaCie), some USB flash drives (Kingston, 4GB) and a Windows PC.
I've read many threads about this problem, for example this:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15002932 resp.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15016734 (saying it SHOULD work!)
Hmmm... Some people succeeded in installling - other didn't. I've also read about that "Parallels way" - but I would prefer not to use Parallels.
Is any information missing...? What would you recommend? Thanks a lot!

It doesn't work! But others reported that it should!
I've tried it using the Original Windows 7 DVD and also
a bootable 4GB Kingston USB flash drive made
under Windows 7 as follows:
The rEFIt-0.14 boot menu lists the following options...
* Boot Mac OS from Macintosh HD
* Boot EFI\BOOTX64.EFI from EFISECTOR
* Boot Windows from CD
* Boot Legacy OS from EFISECTOR
... but nothing helps - I always get the message
"No bootable device -- insert boot disc and press any key"
and can only switch off my Mac.
What am I doing wrong?
Or will only that Parallels option work? (Last year when
I tried Parallels for the first time, the uninstall function
didn't work comprehensively and I had trouble removing
the Parallels installation completely from my system.)
Thanks for any help!!

Updating radeon 4850 on windows 7 64-bit (boot camp)

hello,
I am running windows 7 64 bit on boot camp. I have a 27'' imac with the ati radeon HD 4850.
The problem is the driver of that card is dated to 11/24/2009 which is very old!
There is a new driver that ATI proposes, which is released in 2011
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonaiw_vista64.aspx?type= 2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.36.3.1&lang=us&rev=&ostype=Windows%207%20-%2064-Bit%20Edit ion#1
How can I update it? problem is windows is telling me the driver is up to date.
And when Im downloading the display driver, and i try to install it manually, windows is telling me that it is not compatible with the windows version.
I am 100% sure I have a windows 64 bit as it says when i right click properties my computer.
Thx for the help

Sorry to say that you HAVE to only use the graphics drivers that Apple offers thru its Software Update feature. The driver that you want to update to is compatible with Windows, but apparently is NOT compatible with Apple's OSX and so would prohibit your graphics card from displaying while you were booted into OSX. Yes, even though Apple's version is an older one.
Hope this helps

Slow USB Card Reader - MacBook Air / Windows 7 64-bit / Boot Camp 3.2

Installation of Windows 7 64-bit on my new MacBook Air 11" seemed to go flawlessly from the attached USB SuperDrive. I see no driver issues or unrecognized devices in Device Manager. However, when attaching my Transcend USB 2.0 Compact Flash card reader to load pictures from my camera into Lightroom 3.3, data transfer is mega-SLOW. It takes several minutes (10?) to transfer just 4 pictures. It seems like it may be operating at USB 1.0 speeds.
Installing software from the SuperDrive on the same USB port seems to work fine. Attaching a USB mouse works fine. However, the USB card reader is very, very slow.
If I attach the same card reader, CF card, and cable to another Windows 7 machine, it works fine, so I don't think there's a problem with my reader / card / cable.
Any thoughts about how I might improve performance for the card reader on the MacBook Air (other than running Mac OS)?
Thanks!
Matt

Windows 7 Pro (x64) - Boot Camp 2.0 or 2.1? Boot Camp (64-bit)?

I recently got Windows 7 Professional (x64) - note it's NOT the beta - installed on my late '08 MBP (this was no cake walk...), and I have a question regarding Boot Camp versions. I'm pretty sure I have only Boot Camp 2.0 installed. When I try to run/install the 64 bit Boot Camp 2.1 version/upgrade for 64-bit Vista (BCUpdateVista64.exe), it simply won't start.
I read someplace that this is supposed to happen, as 2.0 is better for my current situation (Windows 7). Other posts seem to suggest I should download and install 2.1 in order to get everything working properly. Which is it?
Under Control Panel in W7, I have a blank icon that says "Boot Camp (32-bit)" and says application not found when clicked. Is there a 64-bit Boot Camp I can install?
I ask all this mainly because I suspect it may bring about some answers regarding trackpad support in Windows 7 (x64). Thanks in advance!

Install Windows 8.1 with Boot Camp

Greetings you all,
I've been trying to install WIndows 8(.1) on my MacBook Pro early 2011, but without any success. I downloaded the .ISO of Windows, stored it on my external HDD, downloaded the software via Boot Camp to host Windows (I'm sorry I'm french so I'll have to translate everything) and put it on another external HDD, and when I plug them to my Mac and start the installation of Windows, it doesn't detect the USB.
What should I do? If possible, avoiding any installation of the disk image on a DVD.
Thanks.

Problems with Windows install and erasing Boot camp partition.

I recently decided I'd try running a copy of XP on my Macbook, the only reason being that the software for my OU work is only available on Windows. I used Boot camp assistant to partition my hard drive which went smoothly. When I tried to install Windows, I get to the Windows install screen, and it says "Press enter to begin installation". Unfortunately, my keyboard doesn't seem to work, so obviously I can't begin the installation. I've tried using my old Apple USD keyboard, but it didn't make any difference. I thought I'd try the whole process from scratch, but found I can't erase the original partition. I've read that you should use Boot camp assistant again, but when I press the continue key, I get the message:
"The startup disk must be formatted as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows."
Does anybody know a way of sorting either of these problems out? Much appreciated.

I've been doing a bit more reading into the problem. I think the keyboard problem's because I'm not using the SP2 version on XP. So hopefully once I get a copy, I should be able to sort it. But I still can't seem to use BCA to erase the partition.

"earlier versions of windows are not supported boot camp" with bootcamp 5.1.2

Hi everyone !
I have a problem about installing window 8.0 pro 64-bit with bootcamp ( v5.1.2 ). When I finished setting up, Bootcamp shows me a message as " earlier versions of windows are not supported boot camp " although I'm using bootcamp with 5.1.2 version. How can I resolve it ? My mac is mgxa2 mid 2014.
Thanks a lot !

Thanks for supporting to me .
According to "Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Supports" If I use bootcamp version equal or greater than 5, so I can do it. But my current bootcamp likes that. So why not ? . In the first time I set up though bootcamp , it's good but now it always shows that message .

Can windows 8.1 in boot Camp display in target display mode on an IMac?

I have given up on Windows 7 running in Boot Camp on my 15" MacBook Pro and displaying it on my 27" IMac via thunderbolt and Target Display Mode.
The FAQ concerning Target Dsiplay Mode farily clearly says Windows 7 won't work.
But it does not say Windows 8.1 will or will not drive Target Display Mode via thunderbolt.
see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5219, question 29
Has anyone found that running Windows 8.1 in BootCamp on a MacBook Pro Retina mid 2012 will display via a thunderbolt cable in to Target Display Mode on a late 2013 IMac 27"?
I don't want to go to the trouble of installing Windows 8.1 and trashing my otherwise functional Windows 7 Boot Camp installation unless it is going to display properly on my late 2013 27" IMac running OSX 10.9.3 via thunderbolt.
Thanks in advance!

no, tdm doesn't work under bootcamp regardless of which windows is being used, imho i don't think it will ever work under bootcamp

Problems with Windows XP SP3 in Boot Camp

Hi,
I have recently received a 21.5" iMac; it is the higher-end of the 21.5" standard configurations. The problems I am having, I believe, specifically relate to drivers.
Firstly, I get no sound whatsoever in Windows XP SP3 (boot camp); I have tried removing and reinstalling the drivers from the Snow Leopard install disc, but no success. I have no yellow question marks in the device manager window, but the absence of audio still persists.
Secondly, I cannot gain access to the special functions of the Apple wireless keyboard in Windows XP SP3 via Boot Camp. Again, I have tried reinstalling the drivers, but no success. I have read an Apple support document which states that the keys are only supported on late 2009 Macs; I own one of these Macs, so that cannot be the problem.

I have a copy of Windows 7, and I am trying to bring up Boot Camp on my MacBook with Snow Leopard. But my Snow Leopard install disk is too old for Windows 7, so attempted Boot Camp install of drivers fails.

I have hand-installed the NVidia graphics driver, and I have keyboard, minimal trackpad, and hardwire to internet all working. So the WIndows machine is usable. But I am hurting for wi-fi, better trackpad, and whatever else is delivered by Boot Camp. I can't use any of the Boot Camp upgrades because I do not have XP or Vista.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use Boot Camp. There's a Boot Camp Support Community where everybody uses Boot Camp. You should also post this question there.

I bought macbook pro at cash america used and loaded with windows 7 ultimate by boot camp.My questions is it has mountain lion loaded but original ower has name with password so how can I reload so I can sign on as administrator for downloads and upgrades

I bought a 13 inch macbook pro9.2 at Cash America with windows 7 Ultimate with boot camp program.
The Mac op sytem has Mountain Lion installed but the previous ower has his name and password attached to it and can only use as guest.
My question is how do I get around this to be administrator to reload software so i can use mountain Lion,and not loose the windows op .

If you reformat the partition that contain Mountain Lion and reinstall Mountain Lion, it should not effect the Windows pratition.
Have said that I suggest you backup everything you might want to save just in case.

Windows Update on Windows 7 (x64) on boot camp fails

Running Windows 7 x64 on Boot Camp and trying to install an "important" update from windows update, but it fails:
Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2506014) - Published: 4/12/2011.
I received error code 80073712 and ran System Update Readiness Tool to no avail. Microsoft recommends repairing Windows from the install disc if using that tool fails, but I'm not willing to go that far just yet.
KB 2506014 title is "Update for the Windows Operating System Loader", so I am wondering if there is something about how Boot Camp is configured that is preventing this from installing.
Has anyone else running Windows 7 x64 on Boot Camp received the same error for this particular update, or been successful in installing it? It is thus far the only windows update that has failed to install for me.

I uninstall bootcamp wireless etc. drivers such as broadcom, bluetooth that I do not use on Mac Pro.
There are some utilities not compatible with Windows 7 which you do not want to use.

How can I force mount a dvd that isn't even seen by Disk Utility? I can see it on the Mac when using my Windows 7 partition via Boot Camp, but not in Lion, which is how I would rather be running.

Well if there is a EFI block, then running a program in OS X isn't going to do a lick of good.
After all EFI was designed for Trusted Computing and Digital Rights Management, to act between the OS and hardware, can read drives, contact the Internet and everything.
Windows doesn't use EFI, will have UEFI in Windows 8 though.
