Hi! so I have a Mid-2011 iMac (an unsupported mac) that I am trying to bootcamp so I can play more video games that are windows exclusive, but I always get the same result when trying to create a windows 7 or later version install disc. I am using a 64 GB flash drive which is 4x the recommended amount and no matter what I do, I can't seem to get around this. Any tips?
iMac 27″, OS X 10.11

hello, I just tried the method and got stuck on step 2 once again with the same issue I listed before. Whenever I put in my ISO file so I can download and copy the files, it gives me the same error that I listed above.

Upgrade USB Storage and Compatibility:
I recommend trying a new USB flash drive - one that is 16GB in storage capacity and that reads “Mac” or “Apple” in compatibly.

You Need Windows:
Didn't catch the Windows 7 part - take that up with Microsoft. Seems you need a windows PC with Windows 7 or Windows 8 to create it. View the system requirements:
