Dec 18, 2015 11:18 AM in response to ahtsanby bozemantofushop,Yesterday I got the same error.
Win 7 MBP Mid 2012
Reading this thread I ended up pretty much following the suggestions which got me into a successful windows install but the bootcamp drivers were not installed and the USB drivers not installed means the USB stick can't be read. Used paragon and copied them over to the windows desktop. Lots of PITA later I got it working only to find out the partition was too small. Nuked it and restarted and found these instructions from Apple on how to do a new Windows 7 install.
Official from them. Pretty much followed this on my next install and it went much smoother, with the drivers being loaded off the stick nicely during install.

Now, instead of complaining that it can't confirm the digital signature of file <AppleSSD.sys>, it refers to <\Boot\BCD> and says "An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data."
