• boot camp and windows 10

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows with Boot Camp Assistant. I'm exactly as shown in all directions. I have a 2012 end iMac 21.5 ". It has a 1 terabyte internal hard drive. I've updated to the latest version of Mac OS x. I downloaded a legal Windows 10 professional image, although it seems not matter since I can't install it. Anyway. I followed all the instructions of the Boot Camp Assistant. I use an external hard drive for WININSTALL. Wizard Boot Camp works very well until it's time to create the partition on the hard disk called Bootcamp. It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition. Wizard Boot Camp attempts to boot from the new partition, but obviosly, there is nothing there. I tried to start the WININSTALL disc, who starts and wants to install Windows 10, but he cannot or will not be installed on the Bootcamp partition. You know what says the error message, because others have told you what he said, so I won't repeat. Obviously, Boot Camp Assistant does not use GPT, but rather of MBR to create the Bootcamp partition. I have tried many, many, many times to use Boot Camp Assistant to install 10 Windows internal hard disk, but each time he did exactly the same thing. I guess I'm crazy for trying to do the same thing so many times. Of course, there is something wrong with my iMac, because it seems that others are able to install Windows 10 on their iMac. So, would someone please tell me how to fix the problem so that I can install 10 Windows internal hard disk from the iMac?

  You need a USB2 Flash 8 + GB drive. You may use an external HARD disk, it is still problematic.

  It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition.

  BCA is not supposed to, until the Windows Installer starts and copies the files to the internal drive to put Windows on the internal drive. WININSTALL contains all the files needed to install Windows.

  EFI boot needs a GPT disk, the BIOS legacy mode needs a hybrid MBR (collection on a GPT disk standard). Your Mac 2012 preUEFI supports only the MBR properly. EFI boot not work correctly and cause driver problems.

  Run the wizard of BC and delete the current partition. Disconnect the external storage, perform the following two procedures

  How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

  Run the BCA and use a flashdrive USB2 (not a HARD drive). The USB key will be erased/formatted. The content of the ISO or Windows 10 DVD will be copied on this flash drive with drivers Apple supporting restart environment that supports your keyboard and mouse and display. Do not interrupt the installation in any way using the Alt/Option key.

• Scores of Boot Camp and Windows 10 anniversary of small size

  I have a Mid 2010 Mac Pro with a score of Boot Camp of 50 (46.7 GB usable) GB with Windows 10 1511 on it (10586 Build).

  I tried to install the update to Windows 10 anniversary but he barfed saying: I have only 6 GB free and he needs 20 GB.

  Almost all of this used 40 GB is the operating system is not as if I have no room to play with.

  I googled a bit and thought, maybe if I wrote the update of the birthday of a USB key, it might work, but it seems that it moves the existing build side and installs a new along?  (I read that you can nuke the old or existing version once the upgrade is done, so I'm guessing.)

  Looks like I'm basically screwed here.  Am I wrong?

  (I tried Paragon CampTune X software on my other Mac - a Mac mini - to try to develop a Boot Camp partition in a nearly empty new installation of Mac OS X, but it just kept gel to the top of the machine and create partitions news/broken, so he is no way trying that on my main bench).

  PS After reading the horror stories of what makes birthday to other non-Windows on the same disk partitions, I'll probably hold off further try everything again - would be good to know if I ever have the option.

  Answered my own question!

  I didn't know the hibernation file.  Disabled ("sleep" mode is good enough for me) and got rid of 16.7 GB of ugly fat.

  Fortunately for 24 GB of free space, so now I can wait for the fix "Windows 10 birthday destroys the other drive partitions"

  I have a dual boot MBPro (13-inch, mid-2012, non-retine) running El Capitan.

  I installed Windows 7 32-bit, using Boot Camp, and everything works fine except there is a problem with the time.

  While I'm online things are fine clocks updated subsequently.

• I installed windows 7 on a mac with boot camp and then used parallels to create a virtual machine to run windows inside Mac os10.6. Now he says I need to activate windows again, but he said I need a new activation key. Any ideas would be appreciated

  I installed windows 7 on a mac with boot camp and then used parallels to create a virtual machine to run windows inside Mac os10.6.  Now he says I need to activate windows again, but he said I need a new activation key.  Any ideas would be appreciated

  Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

• Same key Windows Native Boot Camp and VMware Fusion

  Is it possible to use the same KEY CD Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) on installing native boot camp and VMware Fusion (2.0/3.0) installation?  After all, it is at the same time on the same real hardware.  Or do I have to buy two copies of Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit)?

  Yes, no problems at all doing.

  It therefore automatically appears in library of virtual machine window when you start merging.  Simply click on 'play' next to the thumbnail of BootCamp, it will start, Fusion will prepare to work in a virtual machine.

  She might want to turn on again, but you should only do this once for BootCamp and once in the merger. (Windows detects a hardware change and think that you take the hard drive to a new computer)

• Boot Camp with Windows 10 audio problems after update to 10.11.4

  Load 10 Windows in Boot Camp, there was an initial problem without an internet connection. Found a driver and this problem has been resolved. Update El Capitan 10.11.4 new standard. Now, there is NO sound in Boot Camp / 10 Windows. Have tried to use the method of Boot Camp for new drivers from Apple, but so far still NO sound. Anyone offers advice on a cure for this problem. is just a thought, likely that each so far by Apple will bring a problem?

• Where should I install the Boot Camp updates: Windows or Mac?

  With the help of Boot Camp, I have installed Windows 10 when my OS from Apple was Yosemite. Recently, I upgraded the operating system Apple to El Capitan. Today, while working on the side of Windows 10 things, I got a notice of pop-up that I should install the update for Boot Camp. So I have two questions actually:

  • (1) was not the latest version of Boot Camp included in the update of El Capitan? and,
  • (2) should I download it then install the Boot Camp update, when I run Windows 10 or when I'm on the side of Mac?

  1 n ° with the exception of the Boot Camp Assistant, all components of Boot Camp are Windows software and does not part of Mac OS X.

  2. do Windows.

• Fusion, Boot Camp and Ubuntu

  I have a system with OS X and Ubuntu dual boot on my Mac. A friend told me he uses the Fusion to launch its Windows Boot Camp installed in a virtual machine. Fusion can do with a physical installation Ubuntu as well?

  Apple only supports Windows XP and Vista under Boot Camp and in turn VMware support that that Apple supports.  That said implementation of VMware Boot Camp market partition a Virtual Machine is wrong and can be problematic, because Apple does not guarantee the name of BSD to a Volume and VMware does not explain this and that has its own set of issues and has been covered before in this forum, so I will not repeat.  Now, that said if you really want to try to virtualize a training Camp does not support configuration you can try creating a Virtual Machine around him by using a raw disk, and this can be done with vmware-rawdiskcreator, so take a look at my answers in hard drive not found as a reference to the use of vmware-rawdiskcreator.

  Also by default on a normal Boot Camp partition Fusion Virtual Machine cannot interrupt / Snapshot Boot Camp partition Virtual Machine and I do not know the parameters of Fusion 2.x to add Virtual Machines to the .vmx config file when manually creating a Machine virtual Boot Camp partition and warns the user if you Suspend or instant Boot Camp created manually partition the Virtual Machine and then run it natively you can potentially damage is beyond repair.

  Now you really want to take any chances, virtualization of an operating system not supported on the Boot Camp partition with a product that does not even support an OS supported properly under the current circumstances?

• Guide to dual boot XP and Windows 8

  Hey guys!

  My boss recently bought a desktop computer of Windows 8 for the work.  Unfortunately, our program of irrigation works on Windows XP and that they do not plan to update the systems more recent.  I have tried everything by running it on Virtual Box to run the program in compatibility mode, and I get errors more than anything else.  I thought the best way would be just to get a license of Windows XP and the dual-boot, to not voiding the warranty.
  And here I am... What do I do now?
  Thank you
  Danny

  Hello Danny,

  Most recent PC running Windows 8 have EUFI the BIOS. To ensure fast works with BIOS EUFI inherited from start start is disabled by default. You can dualboot activating inherited from startup in the BIOS "but" the PC manufacturer dislikes do you that and if it's something as a manufacturer of my laptop, Samsung, you will be immediately void your warranty.

  First thing I would contact the PC manufacturer to see if the dual boot will actually void your warranty. If so then you and only you take the risk that the manufacturer will not just want to know. If the warranty is not affected then the manufacturer can tell you how to activate the legacy BIOS.

  Once the legacy Bios is enabled, you will need to create a new partition that will contain the Windows XP operating system. You also need to know if the manufacturer has drivers relevant to the XP operating system so that everything will work properly. If no driver is available, then you will have problems with the XP installation.

  Installation of Windows XP is no different to the installation of any version of Windows. Just remember that XP must be installed on the partition that you recently created. If you don't it will install on the C: drive and too write your Windows 8.

  The next major hurdle is to get the two to work. Because Windows 8 is already installed, you have a problem with the start menu. Plan technical XP must be installed first, then Windows 8 - obviously this sis something you can't do. Because XP is based on a file boot.ini and Windows 7/8 rest of the GPedit file, you will not be able to immediately run Windows 8. When you restart you will simply boot directly to Windows XP. To change the start option, I suggest that you take a look at this link: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1680664/dual-boot-windows.html#. In particular pay attention to this post by WinOutreach2 (May 24, 2013).

  Personally, I have a feeling you might have problems with your warranty and also the difficulties to get XP drivers for your hardware, so you can easily solve your problem in the way that you want.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.
