I tried to install Windows 8.1 on my MacBook Pro mid2010 running El Capitan-
Boot camp could locate the iso file, or the CD the I burned out of it.
Any idea? should I try with Win 7?

Your ISO should be about 4-4.5 GB. Right-click on the ISO, and select Burn from the pop-up menu. Expand the Burn dialog box and set options to be lowest burn rate, with verification enabled and mount after burn. Test it on the OSX side for mounting. Use OSX Terminal command 'drutil' to eject the DVD. Test with BCA. Use the last 'Install' option and partition and test.
