Hello

It depends on if your computer or hardware manufacturer has Windows 8 drivers available in your computer model and the 3rd party hardware.

Do the following before upgrade you to Windows 8/8.1.

Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8/8.1 drivers available for your model.

If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.

  • Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1

    Hello

    Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1? Whenever I do a page search thishappens which show how update but I have read that Windows 10 requires an updated Boot Camp (v6).

    Or better yet 6 Boot Camp out again? If so, how do I update my Boot Camp?

    FYI: that's what I did to get the version of Boot Camp, I went to my Windows partition click on icon Boot Camp and click on the button on Boot Camp and I got 4.1.

    I'm running Windows 7 on Mac OSX El Capitan.

    Any advice?

    If you already have installed W7 you can pass up to W10. Bootcamp may be necessary if you need to re - install W10. If your model of Mac is not listed in the link you found, Apple does not officially support W10 on your Mac, which means that there is no W10 driver certified for your model of Mac.

    None of the 5 DMP in the folder "auditor" seemed to have check enabled.  They continue to point to the same operating system file (gdrv.sys) and I think it is time to start thinking about a facility for repair because of this problem and the fact that SFC found but that it could not solve the problems.  If the repair install does not resolve the problem, you may need to perform a clean installation

    What should I do to upgrade to Windows 10?

    Hello:

    I think this needs to be an erroneous report.

    W10 drivers for 630 GT there.

    Make the DVD W10 and run it from the windows desktop.  Use the tool of creation of media below.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/w indows10

    When you install W10, skip the check for updates.  Just let it run.

    In this way, it bypasses the hardware check.

    You may have a problem with the audio IDT does not not on W10 however.

    If you encounter this problem, see if this audio driver IDT works after having installed the W10.

    This package provides the Tempo IDT High Definition Audio Driver for assumption of office models that are running a supported operating system.

    Did you first run the Win7 Upgrade Advisor?

    Is your motherboard, or machine system provide win7 drivers?

    Installing win7 directs you to point to a disk and not a partition, as a clean install is required.

    This means that you need to install third-party drivers (probably the sata controller drivers) at the beginning of the win7 installation procedure so that the drive be identified / available.
