Why my iMac (27 inch, mid 2011) cannot run Windows 10 in boot camp? And if he can't, he would work in something like parallels?

To be honest, Windows 10 is compatible with your Mac, but Apple does not release from Windows 10 drivers for it. There are various guides on the Internet to install the drivers for Boot Camp Windows 10 even if your Mac is not supported, but follow them at your own risk (don't forget that you won't receive help to make).

However, you are free to run Windows 10 on a virtual machine. To do this, you can use Parallels, VMware or VirtualBox, but remember that a virtual machine will give you less performance than Windows natively on your iMac. Read-> Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?

  • Cannot install Windows 10 OSX Boot Camp 10.11.8

    I wonder if a solution was developed for the installation of 10 64-bit Windows in Boot Camp again.  I have a hard drive 3 TB of fusion that I partitioned (1 TB for Windows 10) via Boot Camp.   When I start the computer in Windows install (on thumb drive) and choose the partition to install Windows 10 in, I get a message that the partition is formatted in GPT not NTFS.  I click on the format button, but it loop back to that error message about TPG.

    I get no further than that.

    I left and I restarted the mac OSX, entered the windows to manually thinking NTFS partition partitioning regular and formatted program that it would solve the problem.

    When I rebooted on the thumb drive and restarted the Windows installation, I got the same error (INCORRECT FORMAT).

    I read about the solutions of terminal mode using Linux command, but hey, Boot Camp should take care of this without all this extra work that could potentially break the fuser unit I am correct?

    Or is this a Microsoft problem because the format function does not work in the Windows Installer?

    If anyone can help us with that, I would be greatly appreciated.

    See you soon.

    You can put 2 x 4 GB DIMMS in the empty slots, this will give you a total of 12 GB. iMacs are very sensitive to the RAM, it is best to buy RAM from reliable sources like Crucial (direct purchase) or OWC OWC RAM

  • Problem Windows/Bootcamp Partition with unsupported Mac (iMac 21.5 "mid-2011)

    I tried many door routes stealth to install Windows 10 on my iMac (21.5 inch, mid-2011; 1 TB SATA disk), which seems to be not taken in charge by Apple. Whenever I try to use Bootcamp to try to establish a partition, in the end it cuts and force restarts my computer.

    I decided to make my own (150 GB, FAT MS-DOS) partition and a bootable USB stick with all the files .iso on it. The bootable USB key works very well and can get into Boot EFI without problem. The score, according to the EFI boot and Windows Installer, "has a table of MBR partition...". [and] Windows can only be installed on GPT disks. »

    I tried to format the partition to NTFS by using the command-line Windows, such as proposed in the link below, but after downloading the Tuxera NTFS file to move the .iso to the Windows partition image file (I guess to make its own bootable drive) the drive itself is not started.

    In fact, the Windows partition came not in the start screen (hosting option after reboot OR allowing the computer initiate by itself).

    https://www.reddit.com/r/Mac/comments/3rzxd5/guide_windows_10_bootcamp_on_unsupp orted_macs.

    After trying to format this partition using the Windows command line, Windows begins to remove it and provides the same error message. After some research, I found that the partitions are hybrid and need for special maintenance. I tried to use gpart, but when trying to convert ONLY TPG, took place the message in a terminal:

    Caveat! Main partition table overlaps the first partition of 32 blocks!

    You need to remove this partition or resize in another utility.

    Caveat! Secondary partition table overlaps the last partition of

    33 blocks!

    You need to remove this partition or resize in another utility.

    I activated the command 'csrutil disable' in Recovery Mode in order to bypass the Protection of the integrity of the system, I found that some users of El Capitan were problems with this.

    I was not able to proceed to the question since this last error and I'm not sure how to proceed, especially because I don't want to lose my data on my Mac hard drive. If anyone knows any information on how I should proceed, please let me know!

    1. you use Boot EFI on a preUEFI computer.

    2. to help TO do a FAT32 partition will also create a hybrid MBR. Please after the release of

    sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

    3. you need not of Tuxera, because Windows install has already the ability to convert FAT to NTFS.

    4. your built-in optical drive works? If so, your W10 ISO burn to a physical DVD and try to follow the standard installation of the BCA.

    Hi, forgive my ignorance here, but basically, as I see after effects CC needs a better ability to the graphics card.

    When I start the CC AE, it refers as needed Cuda - to Ray traced rendering.

    Now, I have since downloaded Cuda - question is ' will it work with my iMac? (write below)

    All advice would be greatly appreciated as it seems the Ray Traced rendering is unusable without it, hope I'm wrong

    See you soon,.

    Simon.

    You don't want to use the rendering of the traced to the RADIUS. The ray-traced rendering engine is now obsolete. Use Cinema 4 d instead. It's free with AE CC, it makes it faster and it is much more powerful.
